i believe it is NOT someone from the community. but the ip address is 172.206.1.106 so thats the ip of the person. just so everyone knows the file created was called i 90285. next time i find something i will be talkin to a friend of mine to have a suprise there for the ppl responible. so i u ever open the folders of unknown in the site be very very wary and only open and D/L stuff from known members of the community. so plz dont think i am yelling at anyone here as again i DO NOT beleive anyone in our great community would do something like that. so plzz as a precaution watch the folders carefully. as it is a community wide folder. and for everyone's benefit. thank you all for ur time. and i will be posting it in our other forums too.

Starforce. Theres a method that certain users use to "tag" a set of folders on an ftp server which makes those folder extremely difficult to delete. These tagged folders can be used by the original user to upload anything they like and the resulting files are as difficult to delete as the folders they are put into.
