Interestingly the 2 properties that the datastore viewer is saying is corrupt have not been used for some time. The one I referenced has not been in the code since Oct 09 2013 and the other is even older. So I find it strange that all of a sudden the datastore viewer starts complaining about it recently.
What I'll try next time I have a spare moment is writing some code to delete all those old properties since they don't need to be stored anymore.
