Problem with file times

Hi,
I'm trying to backup files given a date difference filter.
For example: backup all files that are older than one
day.
It is important that the selection of the files to backup
is consistent with what the user sees in Windows Explorer.
My main problem is with daylight saving time.

Does anyone know how Explorer displays file dates?
Do files that were created during DST still display the
same date when in standard time? Or does Explorer
then correct the dates by the DST bias?

Is the behavior the same for Win9X and NT systems?

thanks for any idea,
Nick
