Hi,
I have a table with 2 fields (among others) with type timestamp ("warndate" and "date"). I run the following update: update dbowner where warndate = now(). This update affects not only on the field "warndate" but on the field "date" as well. After it the both fields got the current date and time value. I changed the name of field "date" to another and got the same result.
I got the same behavior in many mysql versions include 4.0.12.
This is how the TIMESTAMP column type works. You'll find this section of the manual to be of interest:
