Regpoint - crazy little thing

I’ve just upgraded to MX 2004 and a few of the little things are kinda driving me crazy. Case in point, this reg point.

I’m not sure how it got to where it is, but there it sits and any attempt to “align to stag” inside an mc places the center on that cross hair in the upper left of the image (inside the red circle). I can change the reg point of the symbol just fine, but the stage thing is another matter.

Sorry for such a n00b wuestion, but is there a solution to this?

Any help would be appreciated.
