Custom script removed from deployment list - still being run by clients
I downloaded the Disable Flash Autoupdate script from the forum. The first version caused an error in 32 bit machines, and an error message popped up at login since I set the script to run at each login. The revised script works fine, but although I have deleted the original script from the custom script deployment task list, the clients still run it. Shouldn't the agent be updating with the current list of scripts to be run or no longer run?

Incorrect Path when adding a new Software Package
When adding a new software package, DC adds it successfully, but the path showing on the administrartion site is different than the actual path where the files were actualy uploaded. This results in errors when the package is deployed, like (Path not found) The path showing on the admin portal: swrepository\1\swuploads\SoftwareName The actual path where the files exisit: swrepository\DCSWHttpRepository\1\swuploads\SoftwareName Why is this happening and how can we fix it? Thanks,
