First of all make sure that you are running the latest version of the software. 6.92 is where you should be unless you are on v7.

6.90 and 6.91 brought in a new config and allowed the potential for corruption depending on how the system is being used. We had a few people report issues, but it only kept happening to those few people and others had no issues at all, so as a result we could not pinpoint the exact issue, and opted for an all db global lock and validation method on config writes to stop it from happening. For everyone who has upgraded to 6.92 (or newer) we have not seen the issue reappear.

6.92 and newer use record locking for config changes across all databases on the server and also block writing of data that doesn't match certain attributes to a config record.

Update all of the PCs to v6.92 and update your caller ID software to 7.00.00 since the new global config lock support has been added there as well.
