Yes, linked files can count. We've seen it reported with 350MB files + links down to about 115MB + links. So if you are experiencing any of the symptoms, I would suggest giving the Hotfix a try.

The build number isn't determined solely by the Utility.dll, but rather as you indicated, by scanning the various dlls at launch. Unfortunately it's not going to change the build stored in the Revit.exe directly. With Service Packs it's a little easier to track, but with a hotfix, you would have to launch Revit first to update the build, and that build would either be pulled from the journal after the first launch or by looking at the Utility.dll.

I wrote a post back in November about a journal file parser that pulls out build numbers to facilitate an office audit: http://revitclinic.typepad.com/my_weblog/2011/11/journal-file-parser.html
Would that help?

Did you put the script in the Journals folder? If so, it should go one folder up - so the main folder should have the script in it, and then the Journals folder should be a subfolder to that:
C:\Main\Journal File Parser.vbs
C:\Main\Journals\
Does that make a difference?
