RE: [NSELIB/NSE] Updates SMB/MSRPC scripts

I'm not sure exactly where that number comes from...
I did some digging through google and found the following couple links that might shed light on where this number comes 
from. 

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc219264.aspx
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.servicemodel.channels.localclientsecuritysettings.maxcookiecachingtime.aspx
http://dotnetslackers.com/_NET/re-82789_Net_Framework_TimeSpan_validation.aspx

I'm not 100% sure but it seems that this value is a default value set by Microsoft for variables storing a number of 
days. The boundaries set are -10675199 to 10675199. This number seems to crop up over and over throughout results of my 
google search (linked below) as a boundry on number of days. If I am on the right track (someone please confirm), you 
might be able to assume this value seen by your script would imply that the user has not specified a default and you 
could interpret it as such in the output instead of writing an obscene number of days....

Here's the link to my google search:
