Actually, I read recently that it was being disabled. If this was true, you now have to upload directly through the site. And you are limited to 1 MB per file.

Yeah, Yahoo is stripping all their free services, like POP3, FTP, etc. and making you pay for them.

fmeh: of course. But needless to say, if you are going to ask people to pay for something, all they have to do is find another free site, or - even better - get their own Web domains. :D

Eventually all the free stuff won't be free anywhere I guess. If a couple of major free hosts start doing stuff, the rest follow.
