    Hi firefytr,
    I have tried it that way and set to OFF. I am in Arizona where we don't change time for DST.
    I will see what this post says. Its set to OFF now.

    EDIT: yeah it says 4:07pm and its really 3:07pm

    fireftr,
    Ok i changed it to automatic. I went to another site and came back. See what it says now.
    EDIT: yep says 4:24pm and its only 3:24pm. The time of the post in the upper right corner is correct, but not the "local time".

    Hmm, if you changed all of them and there is no change, it's probably in the board software then.

    Yep have tried them all. The only thing that changed was when it was "always on" the post time in the upper left corner changed to wrong time. With the other two options though that is Ok.

    All three options reflect the same thing on the local time. which is one hour later than it actualy is. It may have something to do with the fact that here in Arizona we do not change our time, with DST. Here it always stays the same.

    PS (Yes i saved the settings, when i changed them)
