Why http?
Why not use a script that uploads them by FTP, using bnary mode?

If it is going from a Windows machine then provide the script with the user 
name and password in it, run a a menu item from the start button.

I just say that anything in a particualr directory will go to the distant 
server, but if users insist on saving things all over the place you could 
have it ask which file first.
