For example, most programs represent dates in the form MM-DD-YY, so the date 10-5-96 is October 5, 1996. But what about the date 10-5-05. Is that 1905 or 2005? There is no way to distinguish between these two dates. This problem affects a vast amount of software, particularly accounting and database systems. YellowPages Known spyware or adware.
