Time Offset

I was just going through the options in the User Control Panel, and noticed that the time is incorrect... I am currently set for GMT yet, the time is correct for my location (US Central GMT-6)... I am wondering if perhaps the timezone's aren't listed correctly, or if it detects the local system time and considers that as 'GMT'...

It's been off since the beginning. I'm not sure of the problem, but someone listed how far it was off and how you could get it to display the right time for your area. But, I don't remember where that is.

For the fix, I really don't know.

Dave :D

i noticed the same thing when i was trying to set my timezone a long time ago. Instead i just used one that gave me the correct time at the time. Once again its incorrect though because i couldnt find arizona mountain time. :)

I believe it should be GMT +1 or GMT -1... cause mine is GMT, and it is CDT.

I had it on GMT -1 before. I just changed it too GMT -2 (Mid atlantic) and that has the right time for me now.
