Hello Laver2k As far as the error you got, that doesnt necessarrily sound bad: overwriting of existing files would indicate that the anon account grants FULL permissions with overwriting authority to anon users. This isnt what we want in the upload dir :) Are you certain that what you attempted to upload had a case specific unique filename compared to anything already in the upload folder? If so, then there sounds like there may be a minor error. I would begin by emailing the host, explaining that the anon account is needed, and why. They are bound to respect the responsibility behind the reason. Check that you tried to upload a unique file, and if not, try a unique filename, and if that still errors, drop a quick line to the site admin :) and of course, keep us posted please ;) Logan
