    Hey all,

    When I want to upload a screenshot to RomUlation, I get a file to download.

    This is the window (in Dutch):

    [​IMG]

    Translation:
    Code:
    Download file - security warning
     
    Do you want to save this file, or search online for any program to open this file?
     
    Name: c09779f2
    Type: Unknown filetype
    From: www.romulation.net

    Game: Bejeweled Twist (DS)

    Could somebody help me?

    EDIT: When I try again, I get a different filename...
    I'm uploading a .gif file.

    that isn't right, don't let the file download.

    No, I don't...

    EDIT: It works in Firefox, but after uploading I get the non-javascript upload.
    In IE (the browser that gave me the file to download) the site gives me only the non-javascript upload method.

    I never have this problem in Chrome v5.0 BETA

    Now, I have tried in Chrome and I still had the problem.

    Which version?
    And do you have the problem with other browsers

    Latest.
    Yes, with all. I may not install Opera or Flock.

    It's probably trying to download the flash file if it happens in all browsers. There are no ads on the upload page so it cannot be any malicious unless it's already on your PC. Probably IE is interpreting a header incorrectly and trying to do a file download.

    It is no .swf (or something) file. It is a file with no extention...

    I did a search to one of the files and nothing found...

    File extension doesn't determine what type of file it is... You can have a txt file and rename it to .jpg. But it's still a text file...

    Like I said:
    And Loony said:
    So I can't rename it to an .txt or something :-\
