Well, Network Monitor seems to think not that it was done around the
turn of the century, but that it was done by Men From The Future - it
gives the file a modification date/time of Jul 1, 2041 8:57:36.0.

It is not inconceivable that the author of the SMB dissector in Network
Monitor was confused as well; Microsoft have used several different
date/time formats in SMB (changing, I suspect, as their choice of SMB
server OS changed from whatever to Xenix to OS/2 to NT...), and if
you're not one of the folks in the SMB group there, you may well not
know what the Secret Code is for which requests use which formats.
