File upload dialog on webbrowsers - strangest ever

OK, this is strange. When I open file upload dialog to upload some file using ANY web browser (tried Firefox, Konqueror, Chromium) selecting file does not work. I can select file, but the file that really comes selected can be any file from that same directory. So if I want to select say file A, I click it, then I see that instead of A file B, or X is actually being sent to server.

This is something I cannot understand. This happens everytime I try to upload, to any server using any browser as I earlier mentioned.

What website is it that uses that file uploader?

This is happening on Moodle and also on gmail. Actually everywhere when I need to upload something.
