This is a general thing with Ubuntu, probably other Linux flavors as well.

I don't have a definite solution. I always just assumed that Windows is
doing it wrong :-)  (and use win only when I have to)

It might work to set the Linux time zone to Greenwich mean time (that is, it
isn't the clock that's being advanced -- I think it's just that Linux and
Windows disagree about how to handle time zones).

Oh wait, sorry, that's a guess! Well, it might be the best anyone can do.
