Showing ENTIRE file directory when uploading?

Help! I just uploaded a bunch of photos to this gallery:
www.turnerphotography.smugmug.com/gallery/1793053

And I choose to show the file name if there is no caption.
However--it is showing the ENTIRE directory as the caption, like:

"c:\documentsandsettings\owner\mydocuments\turnerphoto\pickupdestination\color\001 "

instead of just "001". I have uploaded thousands of photos and never had this happen before. Is it something I did? Or a setting on my gallery? Or what?

Thanks,
Lisa

    Thanks-after I posted this I saw on dgrin that some others had noticed this also & it is a bug.

    This problem has been fixed, thanks for your patience. Onethumb says that he *should* be able to get the filenames on existing photos, fixed for you, automatically. More on that later, and no, I don't have a timeframe on that part of it, but he did say that he'd get to it.

    Scary
    Wow, you guys rock. I just uploaded a photo, saw that it listed the filename as the entire path on my HD, came to the Dgrin forums and saw a post from literally two minutes prior that the problem had been fixed. I deleted my photo and reuploaded it and it now shows the correct filename, 6 minutes from start to finish. I'd like to see the competition beat that! Incredible, just incredible.

    I'm constantly amazed by how much you guys work and care, and don't think we don't notice. The theme preview pane in gallery creation, the double progress bars for batch uploading through Smuggy, etc., etc..

    Thanks for making us feel like real people.
