Someone help me remember this.  There was a update to a package that
manages the scripts a while back.  I *think* it was baselayout or
something.  He may need to make sure he has the right one.  I used to
have this a lot but after the upgrade it works a LOT better.  I rarely
have problems now.

Glad it worked.
