 * I just updated from the legacy version of download monitor to current 1.5.1. 
   Import of data went fine using the extra plugin, but all of my existing downloads
   have a lot of unwanted custom fields (over 20 of them, for example, action, closedpostboxesnonce,
   comment_status, etc etc)
 * I delete them then hit save, but they get restored as soon as the page reloads.
   If I create a new download, there are no custom fields defined, but as soon as
   I hit save, all of these custom fields appear when the page reloads.
 * How to I get rid of these custom fields and stop them from appearing again?
 * Thanks
