	I think the problem is with your client.

	The time/date stamp looks fine.  It might be
	worth upgrading to the latest version to see
	if it goes away.  

	Also, and I doubt if this is your problem but
	it may be worth mentioning, when Mac firmware
	loses the date (typically due to a dead battery)
	it will revert to a default date on bootup.
	I believe the date is like 8/26/52, but it might
	be earlier.  I heard somewhere that it's Steve
	Jobs' birth date.  That'd be about par for the
	egomaniacal course.

PS - for Linux/X11 screenshots, if your window manager supports it, you
     can use ksnapshot
