It happens from time to time (must of the time, everything works fine for me ....) that a file download does not deliver the current version, but rather an old one.
Refeshing / force refresh the download page does not help.

It /did/ help to switch to another browser (firefox -> IE).

Till, maybe you can check the logs of our mapper CURE on May 9 (D10), it was I think.

Could it be that several versions have been uploaded / downloaded by the same person on the same day? (Just an idea.)

Adam experienced this problem as well.

    It just now happened again, I got the old V0.15 of D10 (also with the wrong filename!) when downloading (mapper) CURE/openRoom/900/65774
    Is there anything in the logs that could help.
    I'm not sure if I restarted my browser in the meantime.

    PS: I did use firefox (V2.0), now I opened the page in IE, there it worked.

    I restarted firefox, but it somehow still downloads V0.15. (also the filename is the old one (D10.doc) --P
