Hi,
Seems a bit strange to me that u cannot change directories within ur account to what u need them to be. If u cannot set the dir to (1)777 then it doesn't make sense to use it at all, because even if the files within would be writable u could never add new ones, only overwrite existing ones. Makes sense with logfiles but not with stored messages, which number will grow naturally. So alternatively u could create a folder within ur webroot throw the stuff in there and create a .htaccess for it with the folowing content:
---cut here----

deny from all

---cut here----
Now this may sound strange at first, but it rejects only http requests from outside, while the server itself isn't affected from it, hence the forum will still work. So everyone trying to browse within the hidden folder will get an 403 error. I think this makes more sense then to pay extra charges for a relatively simple installation Wink

.
bye
Ken
