   - Fixed a problem with Compaq Insight Manager XE CPU utilization climbing

     a Redhat Linux 6.1 (or earlier) system with Linux SNMP Master Agents 6.1
     (or earlier).

     OpenVMS, and Tru64 Unix machines.

     installed as part of the Compaq Support Paq.  This included 
     'Compaq Support Paq for Microsoft Windows 2000', 'Compaq Server
     Support (SSD) for Microsoft Windows NT 4.0', 'Compaq Support Paq for
     Microsoft Windows NT 4.0'.
   - Added OCCURRED AT time to the Discovered Device Event information.
     When a device changes status, and an email or paging task is tied to a
     Device Query, the time the device changes status (i.e. going Critical)
     will now be sent as part of the email or page.

     responding to HTTP requests.

     single-instance database tables also.
