Splunk Search

Why is the Search app time range picker defaulting to 2001, even if I specify another date and time?

Hi,

I used to set specific date and time range while doing a search in splunk however it started setting 2001 as the date by default as soon as I hit on search button even if I provide another date & time.
Appreciate the fix. Thanks
Jacob

Got this from support:

What happened is that on Saturday, 09/06/2014 - we passed a magic point where the epoch time returned 1410065408, which is (10^10)%(2^32).? Due to a bit of difference between the way Windows handles unsigned integers (it considers them 32 bit vs 64 bit), the value passed was being truncated.
So all in all, what does this impact Any 32-bit install of Splunk - Windows & Linux 64-bit installs of Splunk - Windows
This includes versions 5.x,6.x, and 6.1.x of Splunk.

Note I am trying to resolve this too..
Tried upgrading to newest version with no luck.
I have noticed this is happening from multiple Browsers when hitting the indexer directly and the search heads.
