Angry (Resolved) I'm pretty angry right now... Calibre or Sony Library MESSED UP MY PC!!!

I have a large library on my pc of pdf books of all sorts of styles, and writers.
And it seems like one program has managed to completely mess up the directory structure of my library!

Right now hundreds of directories have been created with names of authors, and all kinds of crap, which literally pisses me off, and I can only think of 2 programs that could be responsible for this mess!

1- Calibre
2- Sony reader Library...

Man, I'm surely PISSED OFF! Now hundreds of pdf's are not in the folders they where supposed to be!
I never agreed on rearranging (or messing up) my library!

And I want to know which of the 2 is responsible!

If it would be Calibre, I would very strongly urge to remove the auto arrangements, as it has brought me in a mess which will cost me several several and several hours of more work to place everything back again!!!!!

Needless to say the program responsible for the mess will immediately be removed from my computer!

I was so hesitant to install anything on my pc, even the Sony Library;since I don't like modifications to my already wonderful and speedy working OS.
It seems my cautiousness was not enough to protect me from an even greater disaster!

I will probably spend several days re-organising my library once again,that is, if I still will find in which folders all documents originally belonged.

Consider this as a serious complaint against one of the 2 programs!
I have no problem any program accessing my collection,however modifying it without prior notice is not an option!

*Edit: I found out (to my great displeasure), it is Calibre who re-organized my library. Pitty,because I did use the feeds the program offered! As soon as Calibre offers an update that will allow the user to make clear that it can not modify any books or the structure of the library, I might reconsider re-installing the program again.*
