Thank you for your rely.

But in this time, I need to access specifier to use BridgeTalk. And I need to know It is only me or not. (something wrong in my installation or not? )

After that, I read some documents, and find this version number in Javascript tool guides. It's correct response and maybe Adobes mistake.

The Bridge app specifier format change in CS 5.1 I believe. It is an undocumented but deliberate change by Adobe that has caused me headaches of my own.
