modified date incorrect.

I downloaded a batch of about 10 files yesterday. The modification date is incorrect on all. Yet files downloaded today are ok. xpsp3 6.01b3 - 1179. My machine date is correct.

The RAR library sets the modified data to the date of the files before they were put into the RAR. The creation date will be correct though.

Thanks Quade. I had never seen that happen before. Since I sort my windows based on modified date, this will make things a little more interesting to find. So someone has kept this RAR set around since 2006 then or at least the files.

Cheers and have a good day.
