DateTime stamp or Code?

Has anyone ever seen a date time stamp or code like this?

That is a base64 encoded string. Decode it and you get a 48byte array:

Looks like a 32 byte hash.
But sknake is more likely correct!

Thanks that helped get me started now I just have to figure out how they managed to get those 48byte array out of a date string "August 4, 2009". But at least now I'm on the right track and making progress.
Dates are stored in binary as a long which is 64 bytes so i'm guessing either it isn't a BASE64 string OR they're doing something tricky here. Is this a .NET application generating this hash/crypto string? If not then what language is it in?

It's a vb.NET app that a friend threw at me to take a look at. But I've been having problems making heads or tails of it. Pretty much it has a .exe and .ini the .ini has just two lines in it basically a [VarHead] and then the KEY="..." (what I posted earlier). It is possible that it's being hashed, I tried to pull the data binary but it kept throwing errors like crazy.
