[edit] Delete Timestamps?
The article text says something about TimeStomp being able to delete timestamps. That must surely be nonsense.
A timestamp (FILETIME) is just a number from 0 up to some maximum. It can be overwritten, it can be zeroed out, but it cannot be deleted. The timestamp 0 or 1 is as valid as any other timestamp.
There are some utility libraries that cannot convert such timestamps to 'strings', and instead produce something like 'Illegal time', or just an empty string, but that is due to bugs in that particular software, and should not be assumed to be anything else.Athulin 09:07, 14 December 2011 (PST)
