Windows can run into problems. The reason is your server people have to set the default permisions of files uploaded. The MIME folder and Lite.pm file contained in it must be Read Write and executable accross the board, In order for this script to work. I find with many windows host's this is a huge problem, because most done know what they are doing. You may be better off geting a unix hosting account. The only advantage to using windows is you can use ASP, however even that programing language is not very good. Seth
