>*Important Information regarding Daylight Savings Time:  *In 2005, 
>Congress approved changing the start and end dates for Daylight 
>Savings.   The 'spring ahead' and 'fall back' hour will start on 
>March 11th instead of April 1st and will end November 4th instead of 
>October 28th.
>
>Because of this change, some Microsoft programs will not set the 
>clock ahead the one hour in March or set it back one hour in 
>November, thus Microsoft has been providing some updates that are 
>required to be installed to make the change correct.  This will 
>effect programs such as Outlook 2003 and earlier, Exchange, and 
>Windows XP SP2.  If the changes are not made to your system, your 
>system clock will be off by one hour between March 11th and April 
>1st, and October 28th and November 4th.
>
>Please note that there are no patches for Windows 2000, Windows 98 
>or Windows NT systems.  For information on updating these systems 
>please call the Help Desk at x23555
>
>The order in which the patches are installed is vital.  The patches 
>will not work if they are not installed correctly.  You must install 
>the Windows XP patch first and then the Outlook patch right after 
>(only if you use Outlook).
>
>Microsoft has posted a Critical Update for XP.  By performing a 
>Windows Update, your machine will download the update automatically, 
>if not you can download it at Microsoft: 
>http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=66F1420C-DF2D-400B-A8A9-EF9061A9A3CA&displaylang=en 
>.  If you already have the patch installed and try to install it 
>again, your computer will let you know it is already on your system.
>
>The Outlook patch is posted at the Microsoft site or on our site at:
>http://css.ucr.edu/public/Fixes%20and%20Patches/New%20Daylight%20Savings%20Time%20Patch/Outlook2003/tzmove.exe 
>.  NOTE: this Outlook patch should only be applied AFTER you install 
>the Windows XP patch and only if you use Outlook 2003 or earlier. 
>(Outlook 2007 does not need an update.)
>
>If you have any questions, please call the Help Desk at x23555.  If 
>you would like to view Microsoft's "Preparing for Daylight Saving 
>Time changes in 2007" article, please go to 
>http://support.microsoft.com/gp/dst_topissues#a2 .

>For those with Smartphones such as Treos, please go to our handheld 
>website to get the necessary updates for your phone:

>Savings Time patches for all handheld users.
