      IIRR, this was happening to a lot of people, me included, and for the life
    of me I can't find the fix that worked. I think it had something to do with
    changing either the month of day format by hand. Try this...when you go to
    change the date, take out the '0' (zero) in the month or day part, so that it
    would look like this (DD-MM-YYYY) 5-08-2003 *or* 05-8-2003, then hit accept
    or okay or whatever it is and see if that works for you.
