I think the only place the content is linked is the guides on here, sadly they dont tell me which files are taking up bandwidth.

Anyone else had this?

Nope.  But I've got a tonne of hosting if you want me to host it?

I've got 150Gb and unlimited bandwidth.  Just creating a tekforums account.

Get the public URL and use google to see where it is linked to. Someone may be hotlinking to them.
