Sounds like Windows is using the month 07 (July) as the year. I will
believe that as of Sunday, the year will be treated as 08 (2008)

I ran bat file in windows and safe mode

Still wrong date 2007, when saving a new document in word pad. I made a
new file and it had correct date.

any other ideas?

Windows
Fri 07/30/2010 15:38 dir "C:\Documents and
Settings\Duane\Desktop\test.txt"
Safe mode
Fri 07/30/2010 20:49 dir "C:\Documents and
Settings\Duane\Desktop\test.txt" Windows
Sat 07/31/2010 6:24 dir "C:\Documents and Settings\Duane\Desktop\test.txt"

I'm not sure when this started I have files dated starting 11/01/2007 and
today 11/06/2007

I ran the bat file again. I saved a couple of files in wordpad and had
correct date. Created a new folder on the desktop and had correct date.
Draged and dropped in a folder with another folder haveing the old date and
the new folder changed date to the old date.

What do I do next?
