Shouldn't my computer "Spring Ahead"...

on its own? When I open Internet Explorer it is still an hour behind. I restarted it yesterday, but still nothing. Do I have to do something to make this happen? I'm pretty sure in the fall it reset itself...

if you are at work then you might be having issues, but at home it should have sprung.

Mine didn't. Some computers are programmed to "spring ahead" in April. I had to set mine manually.

I assume you are using a Microsoft machine.....

If you don't have automatic updates enabled, you need to manually install a patch in order for it to adjust.

Here is a LINK directly to the patch in question - but you should really enable automatic updates and install all patches to make sure your computer is secure.

since daylight savings time is starting 2 weeks earlier this year, they were saying some computers might have issues because they are programmed to do it in april...

Vista is the only MS OS that has this new time programmed in. If you are not signed up for automatic updates, than you have to patch it yourself.
