2007 time zone update for Microsoft Windows operating systems

Important: This update supersedes and replaces update 928388, released in November 2006. This update also includes additional time zone changes that were signed into law after update 928388 was created. Customers who have already deployed update 928388 should evaluate if any of the six specific time zone changes that are addressed in update 931836 merit deploying this update immediately. If systems are not directly affected, you can schedule deployment at the next available opportunity. We recommend that all customers standardize on the most current Windows cumulative time zone update to guarantee the consistency of the time zone database on all systems.
