The turn off option sounds like sensible thinking, sounds like WordPress. And no I won’t get you going about Vista. Least said soonest forgotten.

Richard… nothing surprises me with IE, apart from how poor it is, and Vista… don’t even get me started on that nightmare!! However, I’m predominantly using FireFox 2 on Mac OSX 10.4 and experiencing this problem.

Not much further information, although a good work-around I’m using is the No Flash Upload – this does the job pretty well.

I read that WordPress 2.6 is going to have an internal option to turn off the Flash upload.

I read somewhere that this problem was caused by a bug in IE7 (no kidding). I’d experienced this issue, but when I changed to Ubuntu OS (got sick of Vista very quickly) and using FF3 – surprise, surprise, no issues.

Hope this helps. I guess installing FF3 might be easier than trying to resolve IE7 issues.
