November 2007 Vista Sidebar Calendar Error

[Guest]

I noticed on my Windows Sidebar calendar that November 2007 has the 3rd
twice, both on a Saturday and Sunday.

This is for real! How is this possible???

Anyone else see this or is it just my machine??

I don't see it.
Try removing and then adding the calendar Gadget.

I removed the calendar, re-booted, added the calendar, and . . . it still
has the 3rd twice in November 2007.

Any suggestions?

I just also noticed that November 2008 has the 1st twice, both on Saturday
and Sunday.

What is going on??

The problem seems to appear when you have the timezone set to "Brasilia":

- when I set my machine to GMT -3:00 "Montevideo", the Sidebar calender
worked fine.

- when I set my machine to GMT -3:00 "Brasilia", Sidebar calender shows two
"3 November", Saturday and Sunday.

Windows Calender (under Start menu, Accessories) doesn't show this problem;
only the Sidebar gadget. So I'd guess it is a bug in the gadget. I don't
know why they don't like Brasilia (well, I'm told Sao Paolo is a nicer city
. There are alternative calendar gadgets; right-click on Sidebar, then
choose "Add Gadgets". Maybe another calendar gadget will work properly. Or
set your time zone to a different GMT -3:00 region (but may have different
daylight savings)

Apply the hotfix 943000.
