I had used this timer adapter,and no problem!
I think you get the wrong absolute time of start time.please check it!
You can compare your answer with the follow:
Start time:        30.06.2007 00:00:00         absolute time:
1183132800s
Excepted timeout : 10.07.2007 00:00:00    absolute time:   1183996800s

1183996800s - 1183132800s = 864000s
