What the heck would possess Microsoft not to make this update available for
Windows 2000. This now means all of the businesses still using Win2000 that
are not on a domain will have to turn off Automatic daylight time adjust and
manually do this twice a year if this update does not come down for Win
2000.

On a further note I know this is not a security update but Microsoft has put
non security items in the security section to make them work with automatic
updates, one very receint one that comes to mind is the Genuine Advantage
Notification download. So why not put this there since many of the general
users will not even consider going to the windows site and look for
something like this. In my experience most non tech people simply get the
automatic updates and never go to the windows site. Not having this download
automatically will bring lots of questions this spring when the computers do
not change to daylight savings time correctly.
