The poster has demanded we remove all his contributions, less he takes legal action.
We have done so.
Now Tyberius Prime expects him to start complaining that we removed his 'free speech' since this message will replace all of his posts, past and future.
Don't follow his example - seek real life help first.

That effect may be related to the minimal cluster size of the file system in use.

I seem to remember a thread with a similar problem from a while ago, let me do a quick search...

That looks *very* similar indeed. Have a look at mr.maX' reply.

I have had some similar errors in my Windows and I found out that the faulty program was Norton Utilities and its extended recycle bin features. So, I never used it again.

Well, I wouldn't say that that's a problem with Windows, because it just displayed information provided by Samba that's running under your Linux server...
