Oh yes it can. It's a so called "thought virus" that eats up your
and other people's time and computer resources(= money) just like
those fake e-mail virus warnings you get all the time. People
just read this crap, panic, and proceed to follow the orders
given by the e-mail without really thinking about the contents.

Well this setting defines how a short date is DISPLAYED, right
beneath this box is a setting for displaying a long date, so what ?
Operating Systems don't even pass date information to applications
in human readable form so this setting shouldn't affect anything.
Sorry for posting OT,
