You can set the variable timeset what ever number you want. So eg. this works: $timeset=17 or $timeset=-44.

The problem is it is not possible for the hack to get into details for all users that have a birthday in a specific day. When hack is triggered, it just checks if it has already greeted the birthday for "today" and if not gets birthday of ALL users once and send them greetings, again once. I cant make it remember "when birthday should be greeted for which user".

Consider the "today's birthday" field in your main page. It has this behaviour either. For example it lists 2 birtdays for A and B in your main page (according to page viewer's time zone) and the page viewer may send A a PM to greet his birthday. But maybe it's not his birthday according to A's time zone yet, there may be 2 hours left for instance..

But nothing we can do about it, it's really too complex to add such a feature..
