   The zero file sizes are as a result of mbse doing a clean up and if mbse is    
   not   
   yet connecting to other sites up or down you can delete the lot.   
   They will be recreated when needed once your system is operational.

   Yes.   
      
   Before I forget the current version that sits in the source repo is 1.0.7.4.   
   While the files area it is 1.0.7.2 the difference being one file see the   
   Changelog.   
      
   My system has a few changes that is for me but mostly related to the sizing of   
   filefind output as I increased all values.
