Change Outlook 2007 contact reminder default time from 4:00pm

When I set a follow-up reminder for a contact in Outlook 2007, the default
reminder time is set at 4:00pm!!!
I know if I change my working day from 8:00am-5:00pm to 8:00am-9:00am it
will move the default reminder time to 8:00am as the default reminder time is
set to one hour before the end of your working day which is useless as most
people start there working day at 8:00am not 4:00pm.

The problem is my working day is from 8:00am - 5:00pm and that is how I want
outlook set-up. If I set my working day to 8:00am-5:00pm then my default
reminder, start time moves to 4:00pm one hour before the end of my workday.
Very stupid if you ask me. The programmer must have been smoking weed and
only started work at 4:00pm.

Seems to me that this is a huge bug in Outlook 2007 that has not been fixed.
When will Microsoft release a fix for this problem?

10 years from now?

I know what you mean. My reminder is 9 PM. I haven't been able to figure
out how to change it, either.
