When customizing an AutoDST file, learn the following:
 <DSTData> indicates the start of a template and </DSTData> indicates the end of a
template.
 Add or modify time zone and DST settings between <DSTData> and </DSTData>.
 The display order of time zone is corresponding to the szTime order specified in the
AutoDST.xml file.
 If the start time of DST is greater than the end time, the valid time of DST is from the start
time of this year to the end time of the next year.
Customizing an AutoDST file:
1. Open the AutoDST file using an ASCII editor.
2. Add or modify time zone and DST settings as you want in the AutoDST file.
