"who" is showing impossible data

Hello people!
I have a strange problem. So, I log into my freebsd server at my office in
the morning and as always, first thing I do is "who". And then I almost have
a heart attack because I see two lines:
ohyeah ttyp0 Apr 18 08:41 (82.131.87.246)
ohyeah ttyp1 Sep 7 08:58 (82.131.87.246:S.)
Here's finger:
ohyeah Oh Yeah p0 Wed 08:41
ohyeah Oh Yeah p1 8:15 Sep 7 2006
Oh that's nice. I always log out properly before I go to bed and this one
process is from september 2006?! I'm sure it wasn't there yesterday. Now the
strange part is that freebsd shows the same IP for that process as I'm using
now, and I've had that IP from my ISP for like a month. auth.log is clean,
too. My FreeBSD 4.8 server has been running for 222 days now, could it just
be too tired and in need of a restart? Has anyone seen anything like this
before?
Please note that I'm not in the list, so if you want to send me a reply,
please send also a copy directly to me at joel at starman.ee
Thanks in advance!
