Hello,

I just downloaded the below two files with wget
scheduled through the at(1) command.

Why were they written to the filesystem with a
date of Mar 24 2003?? My system date appears to
be correct...

[17:04]jesse at trevarthan:[~/downloads]% ls -al | grep 'Mar 24'
-rw-r--r--   1 jesse  jesse    700843 Mar 24  2003 gflashplayer-6.0.69.tar.gz
-rw-r--r--   1 jesse  jesse    147094 Mar 24  2003 libghttp-1.0.9.tar.gz
[17:04]jesse at trevarthan:[~/downloads]% date
Mon May 24 17:07:14 EDT 2004
[17:07]jesse at trevarthan:[~/downloads]%

Any ideas?
