Daylight Savings Time issue w/ .Net 1.1 web service

have an console app running on several clients written in VB .Net that
calls a web service also written in VB .net 1.1. Its uses the Now function
to send the current date time to the web service. Since DST went into effect
this past Sunday, it subtracts one hour from the time sent from the client.
3/13/07 13:00 becomes 3/13/2007 12:00. The times are correct on both the
client and server that is running the web service - what could be causing
this?

Thanks Richard

Just use GMT and you'll never have to worry about this.
