Howdy,

I run XP Pro V 2002, SP2.

Recently, the system started changing its time-zone on its
own.

Specifically:

I am east coast US and set the Zone accordingly to GMT -5.

The system holds that way as it should, but only for a

Dunno. Two things come to mind.

1. You may have some malware that is misbehaving, even for malware.
2. If all else fails, you could sell your system to an Aussie.
