Datasocket Proxy STILL doesn't shutdown... even with the fix from NI

[josborne]

I reported a bug to NI about how their Datasocket Proxy VI did not shut down properly when exiting the DSC Engine. Anyone could easily reproduce the problem, and NI provided a fix in the DSC Fixes for both 6.0.2 and 6.1:

However, this does NOT appear to fix the problem! Am I the only one out there that actually uses this proxy to log DSTP data in LV DSC? Did NI even test this VI before releasing it?

I have downloaded the new Datasocket Proxy.vi as instructed and replaced the correct file (in both my run-time and development directory) but I still get the "do you want to abort
servers?" dialog after a specified timeout when exiting the engine.

Perhaps I'm doing something wrong, but can anyone out there (at NI?) confirm that this file really DOES fix the shutdown problem? Try using a simple SCF file with one DSTP tag and you'll be able to reproduce the problem.
