I'm running three hosts from the same location yet all three show different time zones. What do I need to do to corret this?

Your computer clock's date&time zone. In Windows, double click the clock in the system tray. Go to the Timezone tab. Change your timezone to where you are.

All three are already the same. I've also made sure all three are updated at SETI.

Your time is also correct?
Which versions of BOINC are they using? There were some older BOINC versions that didn't show the UTC +/- X correctly.

All three are using the same version. It's here I see the time zone difference http://stats.kwsn.net/host.php?hostid%5B%5D=6301792&hostid%5B%5D=7097661&hostid%5B%5D=7689215&proj=all
It may only be that site I have the problem. I'm not sure. I'll contact Toby and let him know. I would think that he gets his data from SETI though.

Im not sure if this is the same thing as mentioned but it's been bugging me! You can see a line there that says im UTC -4 but really im UTC -5. Windows is set correctly and I can't find a setting in bionic. I don't even know where that info (my TZ) is used but I would like to set it right. thx.

Did you count in the Daylight Saving Time? I'm at UTC+1, but with DST active, UTC+2 is shown.
