<div class="moz-cite-prefix"><font face="Verdana">Here's one option
for a temporary solution to this problem until Adobe provides a
real fix. Just create the following batch file and put it in the
FM folder and set up a shortcut to this batch file. It grabs the
current date, changes the date to 2012, runs FM, then resets the
date. You do have to "Press any key" at the PAUSE prompt so that
FM has a chance to start up. There are ways to make this more
elegant, but this seems to provide a reasonable workaround. If
you're on Win7 or Vista, you'll likely need to run this "As
Administrator".<br>
<br>
IMPORTANT: Use this "fix" at your own risk. I offer no warranty
of fitness whatsoever! <br>
