How do I change the times of Prayers between Summer and Winter (i.e. Daytime Saving Time - DST)?

Select Tools->Customize from the main menu or click the Customize icon on the PrayAlert bar and then click the Location Tab. In the Time Zone box, Select Automatic. If you select Automatic and the time in the selected time zone is incorrect It means that either your local Daylight Savings Time (DST) or DST info about the selected time zone is incorrect. PrayAlert uses time zones information from your local Windows settings. Some Windows versions have incorrect DST data concerning different time zones. In that case you may have to use the Manual setting. Note If you select Automatic, then PrayAlert will determine the GMT offset and daylight saving settings based on information stored in your windows registry. However, if you select the Manual mode, then you would have to enter the GMT offset and manually adjust that number for daylight saving if applicable.
