Models "blow up"

[Hurricane[Radishville]]

Hi, I'm new at this, and I might just be missing somthing, but when I go into O2, I goto import and try to import a 3ds model, when I do this, the model EXPLODES and is very much out of scale. What can I do to keep this from happening? http://www.flashpoint1985.com/ikonboard301/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/confused.gif

the the larger the second value, the smaller your model gets
