   If you do a (quick) search for "tor timezone" you might find that your TOR   
   client actually accesses the timezone setting - as far as I could tell to   
   check if you match up with your credentials.   
      
   But also take into consideration that other/older Windows OSes run their   
   clocks in local time, and convert it to UTC when needed.   In such cases   
   changing the timezone will do all kinds of "interresting" things to your   
   connection (and might prompt the TOR client to try to use the "raw" time   
   instead).   
      
   And a remark : if your puter uses local time and generates UTC from that   
   than changing the timezone might also cause your filetimes to go haywire.
