Mac App Store updates repeating

I purchased Chopper 2 (Fantastic little .99 game. You can control game play on your Mac with the iPhone)...

Anyway, an update showed up in the MacApp Store. I downloaded the update on all 3 of my Macs... Now on 2 of my Macs the update keeps showing up in the MacApp Store even though the app is up to date.

On my 13" MBP this is not the case.... It is working as it should... weird huh ??

Anybody else?

27" iMac Quad i7, 13" MBP, 24" iMac, and 27 others..., Mac OS X (10.6.5)

Here's another weird update problem—I bought an application about 2 weeks ago; I am in close contact with the developer regarding bug fixes and he posted a bugfix to Apple on Sunday 13 February—4 business days later it has still not shown up in Updates! I am not sure whether this because Apple is checking the already approved code again and it's stuck in a long queue or because updates are not working or what.

I was also having the problem that updates would immediately show available for apps after I ran the Mac App Store updater. I tried deleting the apps and reinstalling them and the updates would still show available.

I have a hard disk attached to my iMac with a cloned copy of my applications. I deleted the apps from the cloned copy and ran the updater. Success! The update page now displays that all apps are up to date.

Exactly the same problem here with Virusbarrier. I don't think it has anything to do with specific apps, it looks like a bug in the app store app. I sent a report to Apple but the reply didn't even address the question. App store seems to have an issue with my id password also. It keeps asking me for my password when I navigate my account details. I think this one has their heads scratching with no answer in sight.
