Do you mean the posted date, the one displayed in the register?
In what way have the dates changed? Starting when? Was this related to upgrading to 2.6.13?
What time zone are you in, and is daylight/summer time in effect?
Is today's date otherwise correct, 2 or 3 August (depending on time zone)? When was the last time you entered a transaction and what date was posted?

Are you comfortable with reading XML?
