Guy I think you are going to kick yourself. I see you are using oasis 
as a front end for nos so, if my guess is right, you should look under 
the 'Internet' menu - submenu 'Setup' - top left box 'Internet'. In 
the top right hand corner is a default time zone box and I think it 
may be set to -6 hours. Change it to GMT 0.

Best wishes
