Hi David,

     it is always possible to fix it another way but it would be hugely expensive.  The only affordable way I know is to delete the existing files and upload new ones.  Can someone who has access to the box simply login with either ash or FTP and delete them with a single command?  If I had access to the box that is what I would do.
