Just a follow up on my question to the group on how to get DXB to log
properly in UTC without setting my Vista Premium box to some UTC time zone. 

I've tried a few automatic time sync programs but they have all failed on
this box. Vista is very security, shall I say Anal so I had to dig into it
to find a solution. A couple of the fellows here suggested using a
government, gag, link posted here.

it works well and the secret to get it to actually talk to the server and
correct your clock is to go to control panel\user accounts\turn user
accounts on or off and turn the user account control OFF.

Re-boot and just live with the nag bubble that says your computer is not
protected. If you have several users and need to control their access, why
is it in your radio shack? :-)

Lots of things I like about Vista but this isn't one of them. Thanks again
for all your suggestions!

In all this mucking around with DXB, somehow I've managed to loose all of my
contacts in about the last year. I had backed up but two days before this
problem I formatted the flash drive to gain some back up space.  I may have
a backup somewhere though.still looking as time allows.

Hell, it's "just a hobby".groan
