I am using Outlook 2007's Internet Calendar feature to view my Google
Calendar and sync it to my phone.  The Google Calendar information is
being imported incorrectly.  Events are off by an hour during the
"extended daylight saving time" period this year.  When I look at the
raw iCal data from Google it shows the correct start and end times:

BEGIN:VEVENT
DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20070317T140000
DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20070317T170000
DTSTAMP:20070312T151028Z
CLASS:PRIVATE
CREATED:20060822T025727Z
LAST-MODIFIED:20070309T173736Z
SEQUENCE:0
STATUS:CONFIRMED
TRANSP:OPAQUE
END:VEVENT

The DTSTART and DTEND are correct (2-5 pm) and the timezone is
correct.  However, Outlook creates the appointment from 3-6 pm in the
"Eastern Time (US & Canada)" timezone.

How can I fix this?

Yes.  Windows XP is updated and changed to daylight saving time
properly.

I ran the Outlook Daylight Saving Time tool as well (after the OS was
updated) before posting here.  It seems to have fixed my main
calendar, but the Internet calendar is still wrong.

Should have also said that I tried deleting the Internet Calendar,
quitting Outlook, and then adding the Internet Calendar back in.  This
was all done after the OS was updated and the Outlook tool was run.
Made no difference.

If it helps at all with the troubleshooting, I'm having exactly the same
problem. Everything "checks" as correct except outlooks rendering of the
subscribed calendar time which is off by an hour.
Software is fully up-to-date:
Outlook 2007
Vista Ultimate

Same problem here.  Vista Business, Office 2007, Google Calendar as the source.
