The file listing he gets looks more Apache than IIS. ASP probably isn't supported (unless the host installed Apache::ASP)

Possibly. My answer then is to change to a hoster that has a web control panel that allows web uploads/file browsing.

Hmmm cant get anything to work.

I dont really wanna change host as i get it free as my mate pays for it and has set me up a sub account on his account.

And as im a student free is good.

The vast majority of non-Windows hosts don't have ASP support, so suggesting an ASP-based client isn't going to work very well.

That directory listing looks like Apache, so unlikely to be any ASP support there.

If you can't access your host either via SSH or via it's control panel, then you may have to look at PHP-based uploaders. Unfortunately I don't know of any that are designed specifically for this (most of them are designed for image hosting). Also, you open your site up to being defaced/destroyed if you're not very careful.

Your best bet is probably going to be to contact whoever is the administrator of your network and ask them for help. We have a policy of not helping people dodge university firewalls on this forum.
