i used ziphone 3.0 to activate, jailbreak and unlock my iphone which came with 1.1.4 firmware. i started downloading apps and i also used winscp a couple of times to try some PDF viewers; but now I can't access my iphone through winscp or putty: it says "error listing directory '/var/root'". Have i somehow screwed with the files? should i restore or refurbish the iphone?

Yeah it seems like you did screw with the directories. If I were you I would save the future troubles by just restoring and jailbreaking again. I did that before and all I did was get a headache of problems and ended up just restoring it. In the future just be careful what you move or delete in WinSCP.

refurbish? Not sure how you would do that...I suggest you should just restore and jailbreak again.
