example.bak is an older version of your map; same goes for example.autosave.map or how that one is called. Delete it.
example.srf is a surface file made by q3map2. Not needed after the light stage. Delete it.
example.lin is a leak line file made by q3map2, used to indicate where a map leak is (GtkRadiant showed you these red lines then). Delete it when you have fixed the leak.
1. Open Notepad
2. Paste: ÿþMSMSMS
3. Save
4. Open the file in Notepad again
You can vary the number of "MS", so you can clearly see it's MS which is causing it.
