Starting in April, 2006, Indiana will join 47 other states in observing DST. Of course SOME Indiana counties won't change their clocks until October. (More on that later...) In August, 2005, Congress passed an energy bill that included extending Daylight Saving Time by about a month. Beginning in 2007, DST will start the second Sunday of March and end on the first Sunday of November. Those Indiana counties that are moving to Central Time (CST), will automatically become Central Daylight Time (CDT) during the Summer. Then in October 2006, they move the clocks BACK to CST, at which time (pun intended?) Indiana will now be in sync with the rest of the USA (that observes DST).
Then in 2007........ :)
Here is the most recent map of the New Indiana Time Zones:

How to Modify your Microsoft Windows 98SE Time Zone information:
Microsoft has included a file
in all copies of the Windows CD-ROMs that came with your
computer. It is called TZEDIT.EXE, and is found in the "Resource
Kit" area. The simplest way to find
it is to do a "find" on your
CD for "TZEDIT.EXE". Click on it and the program opens and you
are presented with a list of choices. Select your current time
zone and change the dates as appropriate. Indiana users may want
to create a new "Indiana" selection or modify the one they are in,
remembering to change it again in April, 2007.
