Good call.
I had previously ignored that update, but now that I see its importance, I'll DL it.
Thanks,

Aye its an imortant patch. Windows domain security/file transfers rely on proper time.
If you don't get this patch plan on having PC accounts/servers locked out of the domain.
This change will also effect any system that relys on time. Phone systems, voicemail, scheduling systems.

Thought the following was kinda funny...and appropriate for this thread:
"Microsoft can't do the time...
Some Cringesters are reporting a Y2K-esque experience trying to update their Outlook calendars to deal with the March 11 daylight-saving time switcheroo. Microsoft has a novella-length knowledge base article detailing the precise steps needed to fix the problem -- but if you don’t apply them in the right order and at the right moment, you’ll time shift your entire calendar by one hour. More proof that if you ask Microsoft the time, it will tell you how to break a watch."
