Is there a patch for congress new 2007 daylight savings time change?


http://geography.about.com/cs/daylightsavings/a/dst.htm This could have
economic impact like y2k did. Is there a patch for windows
95/98/me/xp/2000/2003/etc. to handle new daylight savings time rules? are
there any patches for .net? win32? etc.? what all else is impacted by this
in microsoft products and apis?

Hi Daniel:

You'll find it at Windows Update.

Only for supported operating systems. The updates are on Windows
Update.

Windows 95/98/ME/2000 users have to patch it manually via tzedit.exe,
which is part of your operating system's resource kit.
