Shahar,

Your update is not sufficient. The data from "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft
\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Time Zones\Israel Standard Time" is read ONLY
when the client *switches* the timezone. When updating you also need to
write to HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\TimeZoneInformation
directly.

Take a look at the code of the tool I came up with a while ago:

Sorry for drifting away...

It is incomplete on purpose:
1. You cannot change the setting while explorer is up. Changing the registry directly like that creates inconsistency between the running configuration and the stored configuration, resulting in confusion or worse.
2. I'm assuming not everyone who uses it will even BE in the IST time zone.
3. The instructions on the page clearly tell you to manually open the settings and change them.


Hope this answers your questions.
