Daylight Savings Time - time change on files

[Guest]

Oh boy, not worth to abandon XP for this problem. Win2000 has the same
issue, which gives me constant headache!

Though I have a related but different issue with XP. I don't check the box
"Automatically adjust clock for daylight savings changes" because my data
analyzing programs are not uniformly handle this daylight savings time
stamps, causing misalignment. So I manually change the time to current local
time on all the computers when the savings time starts and ends. But one of
my XP changes back one hour every few days. Since I did not install this
computer myself, I suspect these is some other program installed on the PC
that syncs internet time and reverts to standard time. (BTW, my time zone
setting is correct.) Can anyone tell me how to find the evil program? Many
thanks!

If you don't have the box checked, it will revert to standard time versus
savings time.

Yes, but it will only happen when the computer is synchronized somehow, and I
need to find what program is doing that and how to get ride of it.

Did you double click on your system clock and go to the Internet Time Tab?
Is Automatically Synchronize............ checked?

Oh My God!

I swear I unchecked it... Just asked my 10-year-old son and he said he
checked it a few weeks ago. I guess we need better communication around the
house... Thanks a bunch!

Better password protect that router before you find a half dozen ports
have been opened up at the suggestion of some hacker's game site

Thanks for the suggestion. I used to set him up as "user" instead of
"administrator" (XP doesn't give as many choices as Win2000), but he couldn't
play his favorite games.
