On a Windows PC, no. You can make use of Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0, which is already installed on all PCs. If you already use and prefer special FTP software, such as 'CuteFTP', this will also work.

On a Macintosh, we recommend the use of FTP software 'Fetch' or 'Interarchy' (see URLs on the right). Fetch is available for free 30 day evaluation.
No, whether on Mac or PC, the procedure is a simple drag and drop. You simply drag the file or files you want to upload, into the upload window, and check the progress bar
The upload directory works like a letterbox. Once you've uploaded files into it, you cannot see what else is there, friend or foe. Only the upload.gs account owner can see the uploaded files.
One of the things you can do, is move one or more files from your upload directory, to a special password protected download directory, just for that client.
All uploads and downloads from your upload.gs account are logged. You can see who connected, what files they downloaded, even how many tries they had before they got the whole file downloaded.
Well, the actual limit is 2 Gigabytes per file.
For the first year, the charge is £500 + VAT, with a recurring annual charge of £300 + VAT for subsequent years.
