Well that proves that im not out of my mind anyway :). At least not this week but the older I get I kind of wonder :).. 
Thats the same thing I found brendan..... 
Mine has been working fine and sometimes it will be months before I shut it down or reboot the computer as the computer seems to run along fine . 
Im running Vista . I do have 7 here but im just too busy to try to do the conversion right now and Vista is serving me well. It took a learning curve but ive got it pretty well mastered now.. Ill sleep better tonite knowing im not ready for the home :)

This is all rather weird. 

I have been using DXB pretty intensively since 2001 and for the first 
time ever this happened to me today. 
DXB logged the QSO's with the date last used for logging but with the 
current time 

the last date I logged anything was October 14 (14/10/2009)and DXB had 
been left running since, something I often do. today is 16/10/2009 

It was logging with the right times but the wrong date (14/10/2009), 
checking then un-checking again the log OLD QSO data option did not fix 
things. but restarting DXB 2007 restored normal operation 

I am on Windows XP and have logged over 27K QSO's into dxbase without 
running into 'wrong date' issues before. As a fairly sought after entity 
(on CW anyway) I tend to get a lot of QSL cards and if this was a 
common issue I think I would have run into this before now. 

Have we an issue around today's date only ;-)
