The fix is simple - replace the string "%a, %d %b %y %H:%M:%S " in the call 
to strftime in cpppost.cpp with the string "%a, %d %b %Y %H:%M:%S ".
 
Were the executable not compressed, I would suggest you patch it with a 
binary editor. I would send out a fix myself, but my Zortech compiler is 
currently broken :-(
