Sorry, I'm mistaken. That issue is not in the FAQ but was discussed previously here.
Basically, it's a problem specific to NT servers only. When you upload a graphic, it gets saved to a temporary place; let's say c:tmp. Now UBB (which runs under the account inet_guest), only has read/write/modify access to d:ubb. Because the uploaded file right now is in c:tmp and the inet_guest account does not have acces to this directory, this is why you get that error. The only way to change this would be 1) to modify CGI.pm directly (your host would have to do that) or have inet_guest access rights to that temporary directory (again, your host will have to that). To even complicate things further, the temporary directory varies from system to system.
Phoo. That's the jist. Sorry for the inconvenience. That's one of the reasons why I didn't upload a user upload avatar option - I would have been asking to do tech support for that issue all day
I hope this explanation makes sense. LMK if you have any questions.
