I've been running scripts as policies since we started using Casper,  
including a couple that run at ever login, and haven't seen any  
issues.  We have seen some issues with packages pulled over http and  
have thus shut http downloads off.  I don't know if this might be a  
solution for you.  Do you get the same problems if you don't use http  
downloads?

Also, this is a pretty general question, can you be more specific  
about the problems you are having?  I've got a lot of experience  
script the Mac, though mostly Bash but also AppleScript, and may be  
able to help if I know what kinds of problems you are having.
