Hi I have Windows XP SP2 and all updates (supposedly) Computer did not
update DST this morning. Have been having problems with programs that set
time preceding (Mozilla Sunbird) March 9.

I tried to download the XP update for DST but got a message that it was
already installed or a later version is installed. But it doesn't work.
(KB931836)

Some background. About 2 months ago I had no sound in my system except for a
few items like AIM. I decided to reinstall windows on top of my current
copy. I did this so I wouldn't have to reinstall all my applications.
Sometime ago I slipstreamed XP with SP2 so they would install at the same
time. So I ran that installer. The install went OK, but Windows Update would
not update after that. I sought some help from MS, and ran a program that
they sent me to clean the registry.Updates now work, but for some reason the
DST updater does not work.

Any ideas for a solution?

Google at Microsoft's site for the terms TZEDIT and download on the
same page. That is what I used a year ago to set my time zone.

I have the same problem...which is crazy as I also have a 3rd
party up-dater and that won't update it as well (from 8 federal
and multiple college sites).
I know I have the correct MS updates as I walked through
http://support.microsoft.com/gp/cp_dst
and when I DL'd the 'fix', it said it is installed.

Weird.
