I had a problem just the other day when I uploaded some dtml to a dtml
method using the latest version of ie from MacOS 8.x.  I never figured out
what was going on, I just used netscape to upload correctly.  The variables
were as follows, I was using MacOS 8 (don't ask, it wasn't my fault), MSIE
5.x, and the file was stored on a zip disk in DOS format.  One of those
things was breaking the upload process.
