limitations to this are
I cannot dial out.
I have to use vb.net to get the time offset and figure out how to use the UTC against the local time.

Any ideas ?

 

Do you have access to a database to get a timestamp? What about the Now() function?
 
jbaileys,

the Now function gives the current time and the utcoffset adjusts the utc time to always give you a constant time difference. This way I can never know if the time on my pc is accurate even though I have set the time zone.

so need a way using the timezone and the timespan class to find out if the time has been messed with reference to the timezone set on the PC
