When I try to upload a photo, this error pops up. To begin with I followed the instructions 1-3 on this site http://help.axletreemedia.com/templates/System/details.asp?id=31606&PG=resources&CID=34053. After updating Firefox and the Flash plugin, I still wasn't able to upload the photo. I went through with number 4, but as soon as the Flash plugin was disabled, it wouldn't let me even select a photo to upload.

Make sure you don't have a proxy that is refusing connections. It could also be a firewall or virus checker (eg mcafee) that is refusing to allow Adobe flash to connect. If it was a large picture that you were wanting to upload, you may want to check and make sure that Adobe has access to enough space on your computer. Check this website out. http://support.adobe.com/devsup/devsup.nsf/docs/53819.html
