I have brought this problem repeatedly to you atttention in this forum over a period of roughly 2 weeks. I have explained to you how you can reproduce it and verify for yourself that it exists, and procvided explicit and detailed instructions on how to do so and set up an account for you on my server. Nonetheless, as far as I can see you are not addressing it.

This is not an insignificant problem for me--it requires me to reload each and every text file that my windows users want uploaded.

There is another problem with windows closing on the windows client--but what is the point of even explaining it to you, much less going through the careful and time-consuming process of documenting the precise circumstances under which it occurs, if your response is to simply do nothing?
