I don't think there is a solution to this problem.  And since it only 
occurs on Windows platforms, and everyone HATES Windows, I doubt we'll 
see a 'fix' anytime soon.

So, those of us who do successfully and reliably run MRTG, RRDTool, etc 
on Windows platforms will just have to suffer.  Luckily for me, the 
inaccurate Week number has not been a factor in the usefulness of the 
tool so "suffer" might be a harsh word.  Anyway, hopefully you can learn 
to live with it too! :)

I'm just ever so thankful that Tobi has gone the extra mile (light 
year?) that he has to get his fine tools to run on the Windows platform, 
and for all the contributors that have assisted - despite the obvious 
distaste for the OS.
