Ever since we changed ahead one hour, whenever I connect to Active Sync using my USB cable, it automatically sets my clock back 1 hour. My clock is correct on my laptop I'm connecting to. Any ideas?

Install this on your 8125.

I installed that file and its still doing it. I see the Microsoft DST update in my "Remove Programs" list. Is there something I'm supposed to do after installing? It still jumps back 1 hour when I connect to Active Synch.

First, go back and uninstall ALL daylight savings time patches. This is especially important. If you recently obtained the phone, chances are the last owner installed a patch last fall that is screwing you up right now. I did it to myself, I know what I'm talking about.
Once you have them all uninstalled, load ActiveSync 4.5 to your desktop/laptop from MS. It MUST be 4.5, or this won't work right, and you'll still have problems. It can be found here:

Sync your phone. Yes it will screw up your time again, but hold onto your hair. Don't rip it out yet. You ain't done.
Download and install the latest DST patch from MS. It can be found here:

After installing the patch, disconnect the phone, set the time zone, correct the clock, and do a soft reset. Next time you sync, it should be fine.
