Love this script as I'm cobbling together a mixture of different tools, content management systems, and scripts to offer a portfolio system for my students to use next semester. I'll definitely be checking this out, especially if it allows for file size limits!

If you want something even simpler there is File Thingie ( http://www.solitude.dk/filethingie/ ). Yes, I made it. It's one file, no fuss.

IMHO it's easier to customize (pure CSS design), and it's xhtml 1.1 compliant for those who like that kind of stuff.

Things to be aware of:
If you're not using the $user and $pass settings, you're basically providing webspace for anyone in the world to upload/download things.

If you don't add "shtml" to the list of filename extensions to turn off, and people other than yourself can access this script, you've got a big security hole. (note, the demo at sourceforge doesn't have that extension excluded… *wince*)

Finally, I'd suggest placing .htaccess level authetication on the directory where this thing resides.

Don't get me wrong – its a great script – but it could bite you if you're careless with it.

Thanks for the link!
