SharePoint Search Scopes - wierd results

After updating one of my QA servers with the latest MOSS security patches from windows update I am seeing some strange results.

The scope counts that are displayed are actually login dependent. If the account that you are logged into the SSP with doesn't have permission to the files or items that were crawled they aren't included in the scope count. This includes the counts displayed in the scope rules also.

I am trying to determine which update introduced this issue. Can anyone shed some light on this or at least confirm I am not imagining this new feature.
