Drupal 7, CiviCRM 4.3.8 (though I've seen this with 4.4.6 as well)

Both the KCFinder configured image uploadURL and uploadDir are correct (sites/default/files) and this is the directory used by Drupal.  However, when open KCFinder via Civi the path has "/images" appended to it.

I have googled, searched for a setting and looked at the code without any luck.  Any help would be very much appreciated.

You can configure CiviCRM display settings [under the administer menu > customise data and and screens] to use the default Drupal editor - and it gives very clear instructions on what Drupal modules it needs to work properly....

Take particular note of the interaction to use and configure pathologic...
