Termyn8or -> Very interesting anamoly with CM today, on haunted PC of course (12/11/2008 9:12:21 PM)

I mentioned this PC being haunted before, now I am sure because even being quite aware of the situation I have no explanation.
Earlier today I pulled my net cable to plug into a friend's laptop, just couldn't find anothe cable. Well this a piece of junk and it crashed, no HDD recognized, no OS, didn't even power up the mouse (optical, wired). When all was said and done, I had to take the battery out, and then it booted. So here I am. However the PC thinks that it is Jan 01, 2000 now. I have not put the battery back in as of yet but now that it runs I think I will do that while it is running. I don't really like to but oh well.
Neither here nor there, I get online and come to CM and I see the forum, all the messages are from Sept of this year. When I hit refresh I get the new posts, but initially it seems I have to refresh every page.
This makes no sense, I went on got the basic weather on Google, and it, or did it ? It seemed like it was right, but was it ? (you are not alone in the confusion about this statement)
This did not seem to happen on other sites, can a website actually cause IE to use some page out the cache instead of giving up the new page when you click on it ?
The dates on the "new" posts all seemed to be 9/25/08, which seems to just about to coincide with when I got XP I think. Maybe, actually I think it has been longer than that, but I am just not sure, but the point is, what has changed is the date on my PC, why should it affect pages I view now ?
Computers are getting freakier and freakier, and I am glad I no longer work on them. Even without all the stupid things people do to them, they are bad enough. Or is it that I am mac ready now ?
I can afford a mac but really I just don't want to right now. It's not so much the money as learning the thing.
Now if I hit the back button and it gives me stuff from 9/25 again, I think I'll have a look. Maybe I'll take it as a sign and resurrect an old thread. Other than that, the question still remains, why did I get a page like that ?
