Address locator not using modified .cls file

I have made a customization to the US Streets locator style for our application. We've changed "SR" to map to "STATE ROAD" instead of "HC" in the us_addr.cls file in the C:\Program Files (x86)\ArcGIS directory. When I run StanEdit, it maps "SR" correctly. When I do a test in ArcMap using the Geocoding Standardize Addresses tool, picking the the US Streets with City, State, Zip and AltName, it works correctly also.

I've created a locator in ArcCatalog using the US Streets with City, State, Zip and AltName style and registered it on my local server (which is the same machine I did the above testing on). When I run the batch geocoding tool using that locator or use the Find Address tool, it maps "SR" to "HC".

So I'm thinking that I'm not editing the correct us_addr.cls file. But I have no idea where the locator is pulling from. Is there any documentation anywhere (besides the Geocoding Rule Base Developer Guide - been all thru that) that explains how to modify the locator syles?

We are running ArcGIS 9.3.1 SP 2.
