Don't worry... Mount the partitions again... If you are an advance GNU/Linux users, you should already know how to do this... Otherwise, explaining it would be very hard. So, I'd suggest you just reboot your device. That's the easy way.

What is the file extension of the files? (e.g. is it .exe, .jar, .something)
There is a button in Filebox so you can configure some settings like the ability to view system and hidden files.

i had the same problem last week. was transferring music and picodrive files using a mac after getting my n900 back from having the usb problem fixed and pulled out the cable without ejecting the drives. all the folders were .exe and 2?? kb. Can't remember if I used mass storage mode or pc suite and nokia phone viewer on xp but could still save the data, format the phone memory and sd card and re-transfer the data. It worked.

Linux does not care about extensions... What matters is the magic number, which the name of file doesn't affect.
