ADT/ABS 2005 Hotfix that solves .dst file corruption

Here is the hotfix from Autodesk that solves the problem. http://support.autodesk.com/getdoc.asp?id=TS5273141 If you have ADT or ABS 2005 make sure to install it or ask your IT/CAD Manager to deploy it to all users. Make sure that ADT SP1 or ABS SP2 is installed and read the readme file. Here is how I deployed it for ADT using VBScript:
on error resume next
Set WshShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")

filespec="C:\Program Files\Autodesk Architectural Desktop 2005\AecProject45.arx"
if fso.FileExists(filespec) then
  Set f = fso.GetFile(filespec)
  if f.size=971392 then
    fso.CopyFile "\\CAD\ADT\2005\DST Hot Fix\AecProject45.arx", filespec
  end if
end if
