If your webserver is differnet from the machine you are browsing then this will happen. You will get server time as the code is running on the server. Changing timezone on client system will not affect it.

It would be so funny if OP really expected that the timezone on client machine would make the difference (not really sure, it would be too much). 5 for the answer anyway.
