Hi,
you miss nothing.
Since a bad backup all older dsk uploads are corrupt... :(
Will edit them and replace.

Hey, I thought this was fixed though? Should I check my own backup Marcus?

I think your backup is corrupt, too.
The thing is: Attachments need to be transferred as binary not ASCII!
The attachments have md5 hashcoded filenames in the attachments folder so Filezilla or other transfer tools
use ASCII mode to transfer them, when they use automatic control of this. (because no filename extension)

I'll check... I have kept a couple of backups on my HDD, taken a few weeks apart, so hopefully something will be correct. The problem is, how do you check if the transfer was done correctly?

Always force Filezilla to transfer in binary mode ;)

No man, I mean how can I check whether the files I already have are correct or not... :)

Oh, also, forcing FZ to download in binary mode won't corrupt ASCII files?
