    Will they?

    Anything to do with binary?

    I don't remember any such catastrophe at 09:09:09 on the the 9th day of the 9th month, 2009.

    Will it be as bad as the Millenium Bug?

    As the advice section of Viz would advise,simply turn off everything at 9 minutes past,then reboot 2 minutes later, if it's not on,it didn't happen.Problem solved.

    00/00/00 is not a date.

    I think that's your problem.
