Incorrect Quotes From Quicken.Com?

On or about 10-9-08, Quicken began assigning an incorrect value to an
old stock still carried on my portfolio register; Delphi (DPHIQ). When
I investigated, it had been on my books as DPH. Because the value was
so insignificant, I apparently didn't make the symbol change whenever
it occurred. So I decided to make the change Friday. I printed out the
Portfolio Value with Delhi overstated by 30+ grand, changed the symbol
from DPH to DPHIQ using the appropriate wizzard, and made the change.
My portfolio value remained the same and Delphi remains overstated by
the same amount. My source for these quotation updates is "One Step
Update" in Quicken H&B 2008 (I assume that's Quicken.Com?).

The day I caught this overstatement, I went to Quicken.com to look at
my account as well (I discontinued placing my portfolio there a number
of years ago). Today I revisited this area and found Delphi listed as
DPH and carrying the erroneousness value of $220.33 per share.

I don't know how the portfolio on my machine is tied to that
Quicken.com portfolio if it is at all. I assumed it wasn't unless I
linked the two together and I'm pretty sure I did what was necessary
to break that lick long ago. I update prices through "One Step Update"
nearly every day.

I can't find that $220.33 per share anywhere on my books. I've run a
report on the Delphi transactions and everything looks in order.
Nonetheless, the Portfolio Value report cranks out and overstatement
reflecting the $220.33 per share price... that seems to remain
constant from day to day while all other prices change as expected.

I sure could use a hand here please.
