Default ADB shell - Toolbox!

Messing around with my Hero and was going to install busybox and try out Droid Explorer. Now I run any command in adb shell it just outputs the command and "Toolbox!". Baaah, how do i fix this? Did a quick google and nothing came up.

I tried using your ROM (flash + wipe) and stopped using it within the first hour for this very reason.

I think I signed the zip or forgot to include the new install-script. Should have this fixed by tomorrow.

It seems that toolbox is called via symlinks. i.E.

Code:
>adb -d shell busybox ls -la "/system/bin/*prop"
lrwxr-xr-x    1 0        2000             7 Dec 19  2009 /system/bin/getprop -> toolbox
lrwxr-xr-x    1 0        2000             7 Dec 19  2009 /system/bin/setprop -> toolbox
Still, having no help at all is not nice.
