What Sunbird version do you use?

I see no problems using Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9a1) Gecko/20060707 Sunbird/0.3a2+.

I left two pictures on "http://www.inf.ufpr.br/bmuller/sunbird/" so you can understand better what I mean.

Not with those pictures you're not.  This was filed and fixed a long time ago based off of 0.2

Right, the screenshots show an old version of Sunbird and not Sunbird 0.3a2. 

Reporter, please retest in a current version from http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/calendar/sunbird/nightly/latest-trunk/ .

(By the way: It took me at least one minute to find your issue on that screenshots. Please mention the next time that you are talking about the minimonth in sidebar and not the calendar views and that 14-Oct is available twice.)

Man, this thing is getting really strange. I replaced the images by two others that contains the version - taken from the about menu. I hope it makes clear that I'm using version 0.3a1 at home, although version 0.3a2 (that I use at office) gives exactly the same bug. Please take a look.

And it also shows (as said bellow) that october 14 occurs twice (I did not notice it before, this is why I did not mention it).

This is probably the same underlying problem as in bug 356582 and bug 281690.
Reporter, can you please give the exact description of your system timezone setting as the bug seems to depend on this. Thank you.

Removing qawanted. We still need to hear from the reporter in order to proceed.
Reporter, please address comment 9

The problem "disappeared" after oct. 14. As pointed before, there were two days oct. 14 in sunbird, that probably generated the whole problem. I noticed it only today because I was not using sunbird since the problem appeared.

Seems that is something related to daylight saving, and as it was solved "magically", It may not be really fixed.
