I had this happen to me a few times but my situation was a bit different, maybe it will provide some clues for you.

Using Mozilla I was downloading a race file (either from the AutoHost site or a webmail as I caused it to happen both ways) and the save as dialogue box came up. I renamed the file as I was saving it (ie. the_race.r2 to be the the_race.r4) because I was assigning the player's numbers to their race files to make it easier to generate the new game. But when I went to the directory where I had saved it there were no files ending in .r4, there was though a file called the_race.r4.r2. I think this had to do with the fact that Mozilla was listing files of .r2 type when I was saving the file and I had not changed it, only retyped the name in the filename field.

Is it possible that Netscape is saving all of your turn files with the same extension? (ie. always ends in .m2)

Just a thought. Good luck!
