and call, and you wont have to troubleshoot why they can't use FTP and
hear stuff like "Well it worked yesterday/I didn't do anything/I just
turned it on/etc." Meanwhile, they are running WinME with Gator, Zone
Alarm, Norton's, McAffe, Pop Up Stopper, AOL/Net Zero and a 9600 baud
line. And yes folks, I had a client with that same config.

My advice?
Eat the $100 and give them the CFFILE tool.
You're going to run into more coding/validation and (here's the $100
issue) site problem issues with a non-validating tool.
Make a good tool, give it to them for free. Use it on other sites, use
it to keep your maintenance (or reputation-bashing) costs down.
It's worth it.
