How do I change the timezone setting is Firefox? It is 2 hours out and I can't find the setting for this. My emails have the incorrect time stamp on them. My laptop settings are set to the correct timezone of Melb/Syd Australian time, but Firefox doesn't correspond to this.

This is usually a feature to protect you from browser fingerprinting. Disable it by going to about:config in the address bar and changing privacy.resistFingerprinting to false.

Do you have this problem on all websites? On some sites, the problem may be caused by time zone or daylight savings/summer time preferences in the site's own options/settings screens.
