Hello,
The problem is, that a filename cannot contain several characters (including ':').
I don't really understand what is your issue... Anyway, here is a piece of code, which kinda does the 'trick'

Code:

import java.util.*;
import java.io.*;

public class T {

private static void aMethod(String fName)
{
   Date aDate = new Date();
      try{
	   BufferedWriter bw = new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter(fName));
	   bw.close();
           }
           catch (Exception anEx){} // handle filenotfound exception & friends
}

public static void main(String args[]){
	String fileName;

	Date aDate = new Date();
	fileName = aDate.getDate()+"-"
 		     +aDate.getMonth()+"-"
		         +aDate.getHours()+"."
		             +aDate.getMinutes()+".log";
	aMethod(fileName);
}
}
