Folder and Multiple files upload using binfire's file manager

Binfire.com java applet called file manager can upload multiple file s and folders. There is no limit on the number of files that could be uploaded. So if you have a folder in your PC with hundreds of files in it, open the file manager, drag the folder from the window for your PC (My computer) into a folder in your web folder. Each file is copied and to the web folder and the progress is shown as how many mega bytes are copied and how many mega bytes are left to be copied.
You can copy a folder containing 500MB or 1 GB in one setting. The only limit at present is that each file can't be bigger than 100MB. We plan to increase this limit in future!
There is no other tool like binfire.com's file manager that can perform the upload / download task more efficiently or effortlessly. In addition to drag and drop you can copy and paste files or folders. This appplet has all the tools for managing your files in your PC or at cloud stoarge.
We have testd the applet in windows and Linux environmen. We have noticed a few issues with some Linux configurations. We will test on Mcintosh platform later on.
Give the applet a try, it is the best tool for uploading / downloading files in the web!

Installing JRE on your computer for the file manager

In order to run binfire.com file manager, the Java Run time Environment (JRE) from Sun Micro Systems needs to be installed on the user computers.
The File manager is designed to install this library. WE have noticed on some installation it fails to install the JRE. If the users don't have JRE on their machine, clicking the file manager does not do anything in IE, and give a warning in Firefox.
The new version of applet will solve this issue. In the time users can down load this lib by going to their file tab, choose support.binfire from the drop down list on the top right. They will notice a file called jre.....exe. Download and run that for Windows xp, or go to the following link for all computers... http://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp
