Star my computer is fine.. trust me... all the other sites clocks work......... but this one is once again an hour ahead. It is 8.31 in Sydney and 7.31 in Brisbane.. your clock is an hour ahead

but I may be of some assistance.........my tvs have what they call a daylight savings option.. when it is on it looks at t he daylight savings time and then adds an hour... nutso I know, but that is what has happened for years.

This is strange Misty as the clock is showing the correct time in my browser. Did you set your time zone in the User Control Panel?

When I changed time zones the clock was still correct. Try clearing the cache in your computer and see what happens. Is it still incorrect when you shut down the browser and restart it? What browser are you using?

Here is a map of the time zones around the world. It is showing the Standard Time for each time zone. If you're currently observing Daylight Savings Time, just add 1 hour.

Thanks Misty;

You're doing okay. Just a fast test for your computer. Go into the Control Panel and pull up the Date/Time setting. Check to see if the Daylight Savings Time (DST) is ticked. If not, please tick it and apply.

Please tell us the results.

Misty;

There will be a change this weekend. On Sunday (Los Angeles, CA time) will be observing Daylight Savings Time. Instead of being GMT-8, they will be GMT-7.

London and Rome will be changed 2 weeks later for Daylight Savings Time.

Then, about 1 week later Sydney will be going off of Daylight Savings Time. From GMT+11 to GMT+10.

The clocks on the main page will reflect the changes.

Yes, some computer systems don't account for the DST offset.

We'll be awaiting your report.

sorry all I can tell you is the time is the current daylight savings time. and it says that the time will automatically be reset on Sum Apr 2 when we go back to Eastern standard time
the time zone thingy says GMT +10 but it is the right time so I just don't know what to tell you...
