I have a ftp account with my ISP. Using Dial up I am able to upload any type of file to my site.
Since I received DSL and started using Zone Alarm Pro and a Linksys DSL/Cable router I am no longer able to upload .jpg files. However I can upload .doc, .htm and .gif files.
What is so special about .jpg files and how can I configure my system to upload these files. They start but hang after certain percentage. I am using the default settings for both hardware and software and have been using Cute Ftp to upload all my files.
Any help would be appreciated.

I have earthlink DSL using the Linksys DSL modem and have not had any problems. However I use IE to upload my files because it is drag and drop hassle free. Here is a link to the How To manual - http://www.intermedia.net/support/ftp/ie5a.asp for using IE. It also sounds like you are timing out with the web server. How large are the jpg files?

Thank you for your suggestion. I finally received a call back from Linksys that had me modify my MTU settings which enabled the upload. I do however like the option of uploading in IE especially in folder view instead of the copy and past method their site describes. Thanks again.

Check your settings in ZoneAlarm Pro. Sometimes, as a means of security, it will restrict certain files from being uploaded.

I had scoured the Zone Alarm Program for all options and eventually determined that it had to be the router. Thanks for the suggestion.
