The forum clock on my laptop is showing one hour ahead of what my time really is. We observe daylight savings time in my neck of the woods.

You can leave the time zone the same and just select or deselect the "Summer Time/DST is in effect:" radio button. True, I agree that this should happen automatically, but it seems it does not.
