ZoneTrekker is an international timezone and holiday desktop utility program for Windows.
It was developed by Graham Dawson as an Esoteric Technologies product, but its ownership has since been transferred to Ajnaware.
Although it has some unique qualities and features, the availability of similar data from other web sources eventually led to it being commercially unviable to update or maintain.
