Here's a strange one. This morning my machine downloaded the current
automatic update, the one that has 11 security updates, I believe. I just
thought I'd mention that, because that's the only thing that comes to mind
as a possible cause of the strange thing.
The strange thing is that I suddenly noticed that the computer's clock was
ahead by exactly 5 hours. I found that it had changed its time zone ahead
five hours, all by itself. So I dutifully set it back, scratching my head.
Then after working a while, I shut it down (it's a laptop).
Now, a bit later, I started up the computer again, and it was five time
zones ahead again! So it looks like something that's not going away.
Never seen anything like it.
The computer is otherwise acting entirely normally. I'm running a full virus
check, etc., just to be sure, but there are no indications whatsoever of any
funny business of that nature.
Anybody seen this happen before?
Thanks,
John
