 * Hi,
 * we can use that plugin without any trouble on any Unix server, but a special 
   website is hosted on a windows server. The folder, which holds the uploaded files,
   resides in the root folder, outside of /wp-content/ (parallel to /wp-content/).
 * When we try to upload files, nothing happens. We think it has to do with file
   permissions. Or with the plugin putting double backslashes \\ instead of a single\
   into the directory path.
 * Can this be solved?
