We had a personal picture from a while ago and decided to download it to the computer and re-upload it to another email. We had three tabs open. First tab: Myspace(Logged in at the time). Second tab: Hotmail email (signed in). Third tab: Yahoo email (signed in). We downloaded the picture from the yahoo account via dragging and dropping on the desktop. Then, we dragged it from the desktop and uploaded(dropped) it to the hotmail email (new composed message), but apparently when we did this it also uploaded the picture some how onto our myspace photos section.. bad.. really bad.. lol.. We only found out it did it because we received messages that it was posted. 

Reproducible: Didn't try




It shouldn't upload pictures to another tab.

How have you dropped it to the hotmail email? You released the left mouse button while staying over the file upload field?
