I was checking DST Service Tools Security Log and noticed the system time was being displayed as Greenwich time, not the actual time.
Is this normal behavior or is there a setting to correct this?

What's "the actual time"? Do people who are in time zones other than
yours observe "fake time"?

It makes perfect sense to always report UTC. This is especially true
of a DST program. You want something that is as universal and
unambiguous as possible. And when it comes to telling time, UTC is it.

Now, if you are saying that you are in the US Eastern time zone, and
at 4 PM *your* local time, the program is saying that it is 4 PM *in
Greenwich*, then yeah, that is an error.
