Travel Technology - My Outlook Calendar now always opens to Feb 25th, why?

I use the Month view. It used to open and the top week was always the current week (or previous week, I can't remember). But now, no matter what I do, it opens to the week of Feb 25th.
I have looked at all the options in Outlook and cannot figure out a setting to change it. Not sure what changed about my settings to cause this to happen.
Any ideas?

Is it possible that the computer clock is stuck on Feb 25th? If so the battery could be gone... otherwise I would have no clue..

Nope, it shows today's date.
You can try to run Outlook.exe /cleanviews. That may clear it up. If you have custom views defined you might break those as well, which would probably be bad, so use with caution.

It's a known bug. Yet to be resolved.

And like many bugs with Microsoft, it's 3 months old and still unresolved :(

That does look like it. The work around suggested does not seem to work.
I guess I will find out tomorrow when we switch to April.
Thanks for all the help. I will update this tomorrow.

Since the "real" solutions have been posted, I'll provide the funny one.
You're turning into Bill Murray in Groundhog Day, only you're a couple of weeks late.
