Cannot set the schedule to run any time PM on Dutch Windows XP

[Guest]

As wicked as it is, on my system, I cannot set the schedule to run anytime PM.
I am running MSAS on a Dutch Windows XP Professional SP2 system.
I am running 1.0.615, but I noticed this problem in the older version, too.

For example, on the "Select Your Spyware Schedule Scan Times" screen, if I
enter a Daily start time of 18:00:00 Every Day and click Update Schedule, the
text on the top left will display "Current scheduled spyware scan runs at:
6:00 AM every day" after I click OK in the message box titled "Schedule
Updated".

If I change the "Tijdstijl" (time style) in Regional Settings in the Control
Panel from "U:mm:ss" to "u:mm:ss", MSAS will schedule the scan on 6PM
correctly...

Oops, annoying minor glitch.

BTW, not just the incorrect setting up of the schedule is wrong, also, on
international systems (possibly even MUI?), the time should be displayed
according to the settings in the control panel, too.

Hello Eric

I thikng Tom Emmelot from Amsterdam, had ansewr this question 2 o 3 times,
and he go like that:

If you are outside the USA then:

Go to start/Control Panel/Country settings
Change Language to US English.
Click on Apply
Open MSA change all your time settings the way you waont.
Click on "Update Schedule"
Then go back to set your default Languªge.
MSA will scan and update on the right time!
Don't Click "Update Schedule", anymore, then it go's back to the AM times
agªin!

Good look Eric

Yeah, thanks, Angel ;-)

Although I've been looking for this problem to be in here awhile, I couldn't
find anything resembling, so I posted this bug report just to be sure.

Please note that changing the time format from uppercase U to lowercase
basically does the trick.

Thanks,

Eric

The development team is aware of this issue (understatement.) And it is
fixed in beta2, which will be available at some point later in this year.
