Something doesn't look right? This is the Query string they were trapped for:

It appears this is a legitimate download request.

I found the problem. That download had the () in the title which triggered the script stopper. I changed them to **. I will have to remember that in the future. I hope that guy isn't mad... Embarassed

It seems to have been a download that had the () in the title so the call activated the script Sentinel. Thus I asked the question in SQl on how to remove all the () from download titles in phpMyadmin.. easily.

To remove ( and ) from download title you will need a simple script that would load each download title, check it for the ( and ), replace them with another character, and then update the db with the new title. I'm taking a rest break for the next day or two so I will see if I can whip up a basic script to do that for you.
