OS X resets time to Jan 1, 2001


hi,

i've booted macbook (snow leopard 10.6.3) , got warning clock set date before 2008 (it's jan 1, 2001, 0:00) , may affect applications. moreover, os x forgot preferred wireless network (which makes me think it's not time server acting up). i've found out other people had similar problem, couldn't out reason weird behavior. did here experience similar?

thx
edit: btw, i'm connected time server, os x using correct time again.
 

i'd battery in computer ran down, know old style batteries cmos, mbps don't have them.
