 By the way, what makes you think that most people have an invalid timezone
configured? Windows XP have NTP support that is enabled by default. Without a
proper timezone this should result in an always invalid time. Linux and BSD
systems have more experienced users that set their timezone correctly most of
the time.

Like if the NTP works :P, when I go to the settings I see that my time
was last synchronised on the date I installed XP, and when I try to
run it manually, both servers fail to update. While i have a 24/7
Internet connection :)
This is the same for all my XPSP2/XPMCE installations. And what does
make you think that most people have correct time? On my school there
are about 20 computers in one place, and I checked the time for all of
them, all different, all wrong!
For my computers at home, I do have the correct Time, but Incorrect
time zone... (except 1 :P)
So, the information send to the server in the header would be wrong
for all PCs here in my LAN and at school, better said, 100% of the
computers I use pass wrong information, and so how reliable would that
header be?
