Good job troubleshooting! I hate software that messes with the original files while it is building an index or whatever. I had this happen to me several years ago when I installed Roxio Easy Media Creator. It changed the modified date stamp on hundreds of pictures because Roxio ran some indexing tool and added something to the files. I was able to disable that indexing "feature" but I feel they should have warned you on install or before it fucked with files. Luckily, I had a Ghost backup of all of the affected files. When you restore files using Ghost, the correct dates are restored too. I no longer use Roxio (or Nero as far as that goes) and I now set all of my media files to READ-ONLY unless I want to change them myself.
