Glitchy downloads

I never had this problem before with our downloads section. When I edit my uploaded files and save them, some wierd files that I don't even have in my hard drive get added to the downloads. Once I got 4 files added to my model download, and when I deleted those random files, the original files were deleted.... Can anybody help?

Sorry... The screenshot seems to lose quality when uploaded..
The file is "First Great Western Class 43 43115"... This happened to a few more when I tried to add thumbnails to them.. Seems like other people's files are being randomly added to my uploads.

Hmmm... I still get files "boot1.pdf", "XR1-Full-144.pdf" when I go to "Edit files" in this one, the one I mentioned. http://www.papermodelers.com/forum/vbdownloads.php?do=download&downloadid=2654

When I don't click "Edit files", I only get "boot1.pdf" and the thumbnail that I uploaded. I thought it could be the file name being displayed wrong, so I downloaded "boot1" and it wasn't the file that I uploaded. Can't find my original upload in this one...

I'll try deleting the weird stuff and reuploading... Or should I leave it so you can take a further look? Anyway, I'm really confused...

interesting, a Roman galleon, instead of a train car

if you are having trouble uploading, send the files to my email(forum name at gmail.com)
and I will upload them for you

LOL I see two files listed (for that Railway model)...
one is a jpg image
the other is a PDF that is only 33kb

I clicked "Download all Files" and got a zipped folder.
When I unzipped it, it contains:
a very small jpeg of a train car.
a PDF file of a Boat "boot"?!!

and another file has appeared...
a PDF file of Werner Von Brauns X1 Rocket!!!!

Scary stuff that I am getting unknown files, and surprise hidden files.


...
I say delete the entire entry...make sure its all gone.
Then reupload the thing and lets see if you made the mistake, or if something happens during the upload.

My second attempt to upload the model failed... Ended up with the original thumbnail and two others from different downloads.. No .pdf this time...

I think I need help with this one. Can't seem to successfully upload the actual model. I'll send them over to you, Rick...
