From: "Frank Haber" 

A monumental pain for everyone (well, Yanks and Canucks, anyway) this month.

For those with Win2k workstations and no extended support extort^H^H contract,

http://www.intelliadmin.com/blog/2007/01/unofficial-windows-2000-daylight.html

seems to work.  Note that Exchange and Java runtimes may need updating,
especially if you have jars that need some godforsaken 1.3/4 back-version.

And for 98, there's always tzedit - not too bad if it's a desktop that
never changes time zones.

Why do I think this will be a "stealth y2k problem?"  Smells like
one, from here.
