Calendar "jumps" a month on clicking save&close

I admit this is one of the weirdest bugs i saw, when i add an event to the
calendar part of mail, as i click save&close i can see it changes the date
exactly one month ahead, and indeed the event is added a month from when i
wanted to, this happens both if i click a certain date add option, or from
the main toolbar, any ideas?

First check all time zones in your account, profile and calendar.
Start at account.live.com

Re: Calendar "jumps" a month on clicking save&close

Thank you for your reply,
Let me emphasize, the issue is only when an event is added locally on my PC,
not when added via the Calendar portion of the live.com service.
I just tried an offline adding of an event - that is without signing into
live.com, and this is till happening, Tested both under Windows 7 and Vista.

SOLVED!!!
Funniest bug and strangest solution, but here it is...

If you customize your regional settings, by using the pattern dd-MMM-yy (one
given by MS themselves) the date would jump a full month when clicking
save&close in the calander portion of windows live mail.
However, if you change the month to MM, that is dd-MM-yy it will be sorted
and save correctly.
Tested both under Vista and Win7.

Re: Calendar "jumps" a month on clicking save&close

Thanks for the feedback..glad to hear it was related to Time Zones setting.

Though in Vista(U.S.) I don't have a dd-MM-yy setting..what I do have are
M/d/yyyy (I use this one)
M/d/yy
MM/dd/yy
MM/dd/yyyy
yy/MM/dd
yyyy-MM-dd
dd-MMM-yy

Add your event a month in arrears?
