Ok I've discovered the source of the problem. If a user uploads multiple 
files via FTP using multiple connections then we end up with problems. I'm 
assuming this is because the same directory is being used to process the 
uploads.

I tested this by uploading 3 files at the same time via FTP. One file ended 
up showing up as a 'free' download and the other two had their file_id.diz 
descriptions switched with each other.

Is there a way to limit each user to one simultaneous FTP login?
