    I know I get it quite a lot, but not sure about the rest of you. I know I'm not alone as I have spoken with other with the same concern!

    The Problem:

    Basically, you install\upgrade XBMC to find that your time and date are wrong. It will be like 'February 10, 1610' or some other time in the 1600's. No matter what you do, it won't let you change to the correct time or date. Even if you set it correct in the MS Dash, it still reverts to stupidity in XBMC.

    The Solution:

    Go to your 'Settings' and then follow through to the time.

    With that all done, the time options should now be unavailable.

    Restart your Xbox.

    It should now ask your to fill in the MS Dash time. Ensure that this is correct.

    When it sets it, go into the MS Dash clock settings and ensure that your timezone is correct and afterwards, the time is still correct.

    That's it, the XBMC time system should now be fixed and you can turn off the 'Enable Internet Time Synchronization' option.

    ok, new problem. i have norton all in 1 virus/firewall/spyware. how the hell do i allow it to allow the xbox to connect? i tried making a new rule with the xboxs ip address, but it wont work. the only way to make it work is to turn it off all together. BTW, you are a genius when it comes to this xbox mod shit and i lived near you, i just might have to hug you.
