You using FileZilla? try a different FTP

Well if you upload them correctly, they'll overwrite The only way they won't be overwriting is if you've set up your FTP client to not overwrite or you're not putting them in the right place...

Is there a better FTP client to use than FileZilla? That's weird though, I've never had a problem with it before. Do I need to change any CMOD privileges after I upload the files?

yeah you do.

./inc/config.php 666
./inc/settings.php 666
./cache/ 777
./cache/themes/ 777
./uploads/ 777
./uploads/avatars/ 777

The current files will already have those CHMODs set, replacing the files with new copies won't alter the CHMODs.

FileZilla is fine, if you're 100% sure you're uploading the files to the right place then just make sure the settings are set to overwrite already existing files.
