Daylight Saving Time Update for HP iPAQs

If you've got an HP iPAQ and need to apply the DST update, use the HP iPAQ Daylight Saving Time Fix on the HP web site, not the one for Windows Mobile on the Microsoft web site. You do want to follow the instructions on the Windows Mobile page for your OS and for Outlook, but when you get to the part where it says to download their update, download and apply the HP update instead. It works as advertised - I tested it by changing the clock to 3/11 at 1:59 a.m. and at 2 a.m. it changed to 3 a.m.

FrontPage Server Extensions on Vista and Longhorn

As most people that have installed IIS 7 on Windows Vista or Windows codenamed "Longhorn" have realized, there are no options to install the FrontPage Server Extensions, leaving the only possibly way to edit your web site that is hosted on a Vista/Longhorn computer is to edit the web site locally using the file system, or to use FTP to upload your files to a remote Vista/Longhorn computer.
 
The FrontPage Server Extensions (FPSE) 2002 are part of the Office XP system of products. The Office XP system, including FPSE 2002, left mainstream support on July 11th, 2005, according to the Office lifecycle policy. At that time, the FrontPage Server Extensions were removed from the Microsoft Download Center. Office policy is to remove software from the Download Center that is no longer supported. This policy allows us to focus our support efforts on the latest technologies. FPSE 2002 continues to be available on Windows Server 2003 in the Add Windows Components section of the Add/Remove Programs control panel.
 
FPSE 2002 will continue to be supported by security updates through the end of the extended support period, and all existing security content will remain available. For more information on the support lifecycle policy, see the Microsoft Lifecycle web page at the following URL:
 
Because Microsoft realizes that the FrontPage Server Extensions are essential to many web hosting companies, the Internet Information Services product team is researching the development of an updated version of FPSE 2002 that will work with Microsoft Windows codenamed "Longhorn" and Microsoft Windows Vista.
