Speed test upload prob

I've installed Dan Ewell's Broadband Speed Test and whenever I run it, the Upload test fails to start and reports 'This individual test failed due to a server timeout or other error'.

I run Windows XP on a stand alone pc wth Zone Alarm Free Edition firewall. I have checked it isn't this causing the problem by unloading and also booting without it running. I've also tried with and without transparent cache.

I've contacted Dan for help but he has been unable to suggest anything.

Its not important as I don't have a web page to upload or anything and I don't have problems with general web usage. The speed test shows nothing wrong elsewhere.

Anyone got any suggestions?

Thanks, monkeybreath, that worked fine. Still doesn't explain why Dan Ewell's doesn't, though...

Why does everyone have more interesting user names than me? (I know, off topic)
