We've had one of our 3.1 machines at work set a year ahead for over a year,
and the file manager bug is the only thing that's turned up. However, it's
easy to fix. I don't have the url, but get on the microsoft page and search
out a file named "wfwfilup.exe". Download it, follow the instructions, and
that'll clear up the problem.
