Wrong date

Why would it say this

Show update history

It says that the update was installed on
Wednesday December 31, 1969 7:00 PM
The update was successfully installed.

The date is a bit off
Thanx,
Tom

 

Tom,

I've not seen this error before. It is not at all uncommon in the Mail Client, but never involving the browser. I'm sure that you've checked your system clock, and that it is correct? How about your battery, is it fairly new?

I've done several searches and haven't come up with anything yet, but will post back if I find anything...

 

This question is from a third party

He said his clock is correct

battery,i don't know

I've been searching for hours at google and firefox forum to no avail

Thanx,
Tom

 

Tom,

I just did a search for Bugs on your issue and came up with two:

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=325619
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=316328

If I were you I would vote for Bug #316328 and 325691, in order to show that more than one user is having the problem... You will have to register with Bugzilla first: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/

 

Thanx,but am I missing something.I don't see any solutions their.Did you see any?

Tom

 

Tom,

No, no solution, and there are none for users as a rule. These are bugs that are unconfirmed, and why I suggested that you, or your friend, vote for the Bugs. The Bug Reports are for the programmers, and once the bug is confirmed, they add a code to the program for a fix.

 

Ramona

Thanx for your help and i will pass this on

Tom

 

where does one find update history, in first place? Which program? I would like to check this out, but don't have a clue as to where it is. Is it only in FF1.5.0.1?
It seems like it from Ramona's links.
One should tell which program, and, how the update was made, and the OS was used to make any sense. I will close my FF1.0.7, and check my 1.5.0.1.
I noticed something odd in the Add/Remove of my WinXP. It reports correctly that I am using, "frequently" both 1.0.7 and 1.5.0.1, but 1.0.7 was last used on 1/20/06, and FF1.5.0.1 on 2/2/06.
A 1969 date is in the same ballpark of the AntiSpyware of NS8.1, which always starts with a Blacklist file of 36 yrs ago, and it used to relapse almost daily, after a full scan, and blacklist update.

I am in 1.5.0.1. and, in Tools|Options|Advanced|Updates|Show update history, I have the correct date of
Feb1, 2006. I used the incremental update from 1.5. Now, if the other strange dates are from direct/clean installation of the 1.5.0.1 program, we may have another oddity, beside showing 1.5 in the Add/Remove.
