I just edited my TZTAB.LIB.SYS file.
Reference:
http://www.energy.ca.gov/daylightsaving.html
http://www.nixdoc.net/man-pages/HP-UX/man4/tztab.4.html

I added comments at the top and changed my EST,CST,MST,PST entries
as follows. Please submit changes where I have errored.
(Dave, check your table again!!)
(Now to find how its done on my SuSe linux - no tztab file located)
(I guess that means another Windows update is planned!)
