Yeah, they're all correct. The WOL box was being updated, just seems to hold onto users longer than the detailed WOL display. (perhaps you were addressing the other poster in this thread wrt file perms...)
Were the 4 cache timer settings at CP -> Portal Settings, new for v7.3? I honestly don't recall seeing them there before.
In any case I now have the cache timer set the same as I do for the WOL timer, CP -> Display Options -> Who's Online. Seems to have resolved my issue, as far as I can tell...

And thank you for your help with this and the paths to get to where everything is. I'm pretty new to this so really need the simple version to figure it out!

How long did it take for it to right itself when you did this as I've done that too and nothing's changed?

It should have righted itself after one or the other timers expired (I would assume) but I didn't wait, I cleared the cache and it seemed to be spot on after that.
CP -> Clear Cache
Regarding the file perm's if you have command line access to your server (assuming unix here) you would do the following inside your /ubbthreads root directory.

Assuming the host allows CHMOD via FTP.
Not all hosts do (we didn't either until I realized it was disabled).
I guess you just have to use what you have available, ssh or ftp (or gasp... telnet!)...
Since I've never used any hosting provider than my own (I own a ISP/Hosting company) I'm not sure what the industry standard is on ssh/telnet/ftp access.
