After the newest wordpress update 3.5, it automatically made a folder like this. I saw it when I logged into my hosting via ftp today. I hosted 2 sites (2 unique domains) there and both have wordpress 3.5, but only for one site, this type of folder created automatically.

mysite.com.old

Anyone experienced the same thing ?

Are you in dreamhost? There are few threads discussing the same:
How to delete .old folders on Dreamhost
https://discussion.dreamhost.com/thread-135405.html

These are created by the upgrade software (I belive you didn't upgrade manually and used some script installer), you may delete them.

Why don't you just back it up in your PC and delete 'em. If something wrong happens, you can put it back!

I just wanna tell you that most of the links in the signature are trash and/or a trap to make you pay!
