When diffing a file against the most recent version in Perforce, the side of the diff window with the repository version of the file contains an extra line at the top with repository metadata information, that is not actually part of the file.  This means that files that haven't actually been modified show as having been modified.

The metadata appears to be the of the following format:
<perforce_depot_path_to_file>#<ver> - <description_of_last_change>

For Example:
//Depot/my/path/example/readme.txt#4 - edit change 530288 (ktext)

I am using v18.0.0.13 64-bit on Windows 7 64bit

Screenshot attached with specific example.

Has anybody else noticed this problem?

This has been fixed, please contact our support department and they will send you a new Perforce.e.  It will also be in our first hotfix.
