Okay, if this just happened once, I'd chalk it up to some error on my part -- something that I accidentally did and didn't notice. But this is twice now, and I'm completely confused.

Two times in the last month-and-a-half to two-month period, my main css file on the website I maintain at work was replaced with an older version. My local copy of the site (the only source I used to upload files to the site) is always the updated version, and all I have to do is re-upload my local file, and it corrects the problem. So, since it's not my local file that's the problem, and I only keep one copy of the file on the server, I have no idea how the old version keeps popping up.

It just happened again either overnight or this morning, and the really strange thing is that we just migrated to a new server, so everything is fresh and new, and the css file was the correct one yesterday. Somehow overnight, it turned into the old one... on a brand new server that's never even seen the old version! Again, my local copy is the correct one.

How is this possible? I'm completely stumped!
