550 Prohibited file name: .pureftpd-upload + critical error + contact admin in forum

[keudal]

We exchanged today through my filezilla client with a trusty friend some data (video + audio video files the day before). We had both the password for this common server on my machine (he is in paris me in the south west of france, 2 different locations and machines), ready that we were to only use it for this exchange and re-configurate later the server. Unfortunately, when i deleted the whole files, it remained 2 in a "prefs" of the public_html:
550 Prohibited file name: .pureftpd-upload.49a01112.15.4127.1db34fbf and .pureftpd-upload.49a00928.15.1f63.841bf5d1, both cant be retrieved in anyways, match my whole hard disk when compared to the local server (which ever is selected); cannot delete or rename them. As well, trying to upload these files got me a critical error.
DESPITE IT, WE HAD NO PB TRANSFEERING THE FILES ONE WAY OR THE OTHER (but is this procedure allowed? i doubt it ... now).

I would like to know:
-if this procedure is allowed or forbidden
-if i can change my password keeping the same host name on the local
server
-if these 2 files may harm or not the security of the exchanges (in normal conditions and in case i could change my password)

• if they could have been introduced here to hack voluntarly my server a3356674 hosted @ 216.108.235.38 (distant) or if it is just a consequence of a dysfunctional connexion and exchange;
• if i order to sharpen risks in the future i should prefer to open a new account (new host name)?

I should add that i can delete with no pb my other accounts, one being hosted at the same root, with the same name of server a3356674, presenting the same characteristic, and this one too (it was unchanged when i reinstall filezilla and reconnect my local server)

I ask you to forgive me for this way to practice filezilla (i know pass exchange is never a safe way), but were not very used to it and it was a pretty much emergent work, that finaly we success to provide in the deadlines, and with the only help of this very practical soft i wish to keep in my favourites...
