Sabnzbd files moved to parent directory on download completion

Hi everyone.

I'm having the weirdest issue with Sabnzb on W7 (new computer, was using XP before, never had it).

Sabnzb is intalled in C:/Programmes personnels/Sabnzbd

Upon completion of a download, all files from the said folder (sabnzb.exe, sabnzb-console.exe, uninstall.exe, Sample-PostProc.cmd etc) are moved to C:/Programmes personnels.
The issue doesn't occur every time, there's another parameter (extraction ? par ?) that I haven't been able to isolate just yet. I'm trying differente kind of files to see what could be triggering this.

Well it's not happening any more ...  ???

I redownloaded a nzb that caused the issue and it worked.

Very disturbing.
Can you email the said NZB file to bugs at sabnzbd.org ?
Please refer to this message.

I will.

It happened this morning again, and I had this error :

2011-02-09 07:45:17,927 ERREUR: Erreur lors du renommage de "C:\Users\Vincent\Desktop\_UNPACK_shameless-s01e05-tvep" en "C:\Users\Vincent\Desktop\shameless-s01e05-tvep"

What is interesting is that it wasn't the last nzb in the queue and that those that were next downloaded and extracted successfully.

This is something completely different
and very likely to be caused by the virus scanner.
Windows is totally paranoid about renaming folders, while
some program (e.g. virus scanner) is still accessing it.

For a solution, see: http://wiki.sabnzbd.org/configure-special item folder_rename
