you're welcome. but Filestore still exists mate. my celeb forum had Filestore, all i did was upgrade vbseo then uninstalled it. this is what i did to all of my forums that was running vbseo at the time. goteen has had Filestore in the past twice, both times i upgraded vbseo and it fixed it. the 2nd time i used a 70 character password which seems to stop Filestore. but when you bought the forums the vbseo password changed. i would actually try to upload a fresh copy of vbseo, then uninstall it for good. that would be something worth trying if i still ran a vbulletin boards. cheers.
