What do you mean, to their original format? They haven't changed formats, only from database to physical files, right?

yes Gary...... is there a way I could get the files back to the database ?

there is another hack to export those files from the database to normal separate files... like .JPG and .TXT files.

well, sabret00the, if I undo the modifications, of course, NEW attachments would be in the database.......

but I need ALL the attachments...

d88462e0c93077989080031a852ffe19.file etc

to
d88462e0c93077989080031a852ffe19.jpg

what it someone uploads

roothack.php

and it gets uploaded as

Now all someone has to do is figure out where the file is stored (if its stored in a web accessable folder). and bam :)
