Thanks! I think you hit the nail on the head. upload_max_filesize is
indeed set to 2mb and all the files I'm having problems with are over
2mb.

Two more questions. Is there any downside to changing this variable in
php.ini to a higher value [say 3mb] (other then it consuming more
server resources) ?
This is a dedicated server with a speedy processor and 2gb of Ram.
And if I do change the value in php.ini do I have to restart some
process or does php pick up those settings right away?

Thanks again.
