The code:
        java.util.Date dt1 = new Date();

        System.out.println(dt1+"\n");
        System.out.println(dt1.toString()+"\n");
        System.out.println((new java.util.Date(dt1.toString()))+"\n");
The results:
Fri Apr 18 10:02:39 EDT 1997

Fri Apr 18 10:02:39 EDT 1997

Fri Apr 18 09:02:39 EDT 1997
        
There is one hour difference when you convert date into string and convert string back to date.

I developed an encrpytion algorithm based on string encryption/decrpytion and work on encrpyt/decrpyt
most java's data types. I found the above problem.
