Re: Daylight Savings is coming

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Tom, I knew there was patches out there for 98 & 2K machines
as I have seen references in either this or another NG.
Glad you posted them. I don't have any of these machines at
home but one of my work sites uses 2K Pro OS on their
workstations exclusively. Of course their 2003 servers have
probably never been updated with all the fixes that Windows
provided.

Both work quite well.
