Hi,

You can actually get around the COM issue on Windows. You have to FTP
remote create the file in a directory that has guest write permissions.
Once it is there, you can do nothing with it but you can get it up there
at least.

Learnt that the hard way, crappy windows security :)

Best Regards

Phin
