in reply to time() off

What do you get if do (at the command prompt): 


c:\> SET TZ=EST4
C:\> perl -e"print scalar localtime()"

?

I suspect that your OS has broken timezone handling (you don't say what it is though.)

    That fixed it. For whatever reason I had a system variable TZ and it was set to EST. Changing it to EST4 worked and my perl time is back! Thanks guys.
