Accessing updates Date Modified

[dasymington]

I carried out a simple search and find that whenever I click on an item in the results pane the date modified gets changed to today's date. This makes UR virtually useless for what I use it for; all my searches that are ordered by date modified will end up showing items at the top of the list that shouldn't be there, making it very difficult to find what I want.

Why has UR started doing this? What is getting updated when I just look at an item? And how can I restore the previous modified dates so that I can get my data into a decent order again?

The items affected are based on a custom template. Since UR version 3 the template has a form attached, but I don't understand why just looking at the item should change the date modified.
