Deselecting images in camera raw before opening the rest is deleting the files from finder!

Question

Hi, as the title suggests, im having an issue with of our machines. There are 6 running camera raw and it is the only one to do this (version 6.6).
Example situation:
10 RAW files are dragged into photoshop,
they open in camera raw.
all are selected and a white balance taken from the 'grey card' image that has been shot specifically.
the grey card image is then deselected (with backspace button or otherwise) because i don't need it to be opened in photoshop for further editing with the rest.
the problem:
after clicking 'open images' the deselected grey card image is dissapearing from my finder window. the delay in opening in photoshop means i can actually watch it go.
this doesnt happen on any other of my machines in the studio and that action should simply tell camera raw that i dont want to open that particular image in photoshop.
can anyone tell me why it is doing that??
we're working off our server (as we normally do), so the files arent being sent to the trash. if raws are worked on from the dekstop, the same thing happens and they obviously go straight to the trash then
why is camera raw deleting my files? are they recovereable? how do i stop it?
any help would be great. its a fast working studio and the grey card shots are not something we can afford to be losing.
thanks,
dom.

Sounds like you're working over a network.
This is the boilerplate text often used in connection to saving to a network (please NOTE the part where it explains that normally, it does work, but that it is impossible to troubleshoot someone else's network remotely, and that's why it's not supported by Adobe):
If you are opening files over a network or saving them to a network server, please cease and desist immediately in the event you are currently experiencing problems with one or more files. Working across a network is not supported.
See: 
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/406/kb406793.html
  Copy the CLOSED file from your server to your local hard disk, work on it, save it again to your local hard disk, close it, and copy the closed file back to the server.
     Of course, the fact that Adobe does not support working across a network does not necessarily mean it won't work.   It should.
    Adobe's position is that there are too many variables in a network environment for them to guarantee that everything will work correctly in every network, especially given the fact that if something does not work properly, it's probably the network's fault, and Adobe has no way of troubleshooting your network.
  If you can't work locally, you are on your own, and if something happens, you're on your own. If you must work from a server, make sure your network administrator is a competent professional.
When problems arise, a lot of valuable work can be lost.
