Alternatives to SWFUpload

Question

I developed a system that uses SWFUpload to allow the user to upload multiple progress bar files, showing them the download progress. All this works fine in my development environment, but doesn’t work for some users in the wild when the Flash movie doesn’t load. I see that there is a Flash movie, if I right-click, a window appears with the message Movie is not loaded ... (Then on the next line) About Adobe Flash Player 10 ...

So far, I have not been able to determine what causes the failure.

Are there other alternatives to SWFUpload that will allow:

• Download run level
• Allow multiple downloads

Alternatively, any ideas on the cause of the SWFUpload problem?
