Hi before any one reports anything please insure that you do not have
scripts for the effected programs in your shared settings folder.  For
example make sure that your default.jsb file is only in your all users
settings folder etc.  The reason for this is if there are script
improvements you will not see them if the old scripts are in your users
folder.

Boy, promises that don't get delivered on. Sounds awfully familiar from a 
recent discussion on another list to which you whined incessantly.
