Yes, but what about those that are still running earlier versions of windows? 
How would we go about updating due to this change?

  I just figured that I would pass this along just in case. Does this mean that 
our computer will not function correctly if we don't install the new software 
to fix this problem? I haven't heard the news or anyone making a big deal about 
it. 
  I am no longer enrolled at the school mentioned, but I am still signed up to 
their e-mail list. smile

  Ref.:  Daylight Savings Time Changes

   

  The Energy Policy Act of 2005 changed the way that Daylight Savings Time 
(DST) is implemented. Starting in the spring of 2007, there are four additional 
weeks of DST.  It will now begin at 2:00AM on Sunday March 11 (3 weeks 
earlier), and end at 2:00AM on Sunday November 4 (1 week later).

   

  This change in the law will cause many computer systems to report inaccurate 
time. Operating systems, as well as applications that use the local computer 
time for reference such as email clients, will need to be updated.   Updates 
will need to be applied to computing systems including servers, PCs, mobile 
devices, and applications such as Outlook.  In the past few days, UCC has 
completed updates to enterprise server systems and to all Windows XP machines 
connected to the UNO-domain.  

  All Microsoft Outlook clients will need to run an update calendar program to 
allow for correction of the DST setting.  UCC has instructions on how to 
install this update at  http://ucc.uno.edu/DST_Update2.cfm#L2

  For client machines not part of the UNO-domain, laptops, non-Windows systems, 
or mobile devices, please refer to the documentation available at 
http://www.ucc.uno.edu/DST_Update.cfm#  for recommended procedures. 

   

  For any questions related to this issue, please contact the UCC Help Desk at 
280-HELP or at helpdesk@xxxxxxx
