With Daylight Saving Time (DST) a full four weeks longer in the U.S. and Canada now, unless certain updates are installed on your computer, its system clock will likely be incorrect during the extra weeks.

Many Windows XP systems with Automatic Updates turned on will receive the necessary updates automatically — but not all. Hence, I recommend that you visit Microsoft’s Daylight Saving Time Update Guide at http://tinyurl.com/39ptt9 to determine whether or not you’ll need to manually update your computer.

If you own a Mac and are running OS X, visit http://tinyurl.com/25u55p to download the Mac-specific update.
