Short answer... a heck of a lot of ASP code. ASP is not really designed to read/write binary files whatsoever... as all the filesystemobject commands are for text files. Even uploading binary files using just ASP is a lot of work and quite demanding for the server.

The advantage ASP has over php is the fact that you have the option to use compiled objects... it's the way to go.

ASPUpload is normally installed by default by a heck of a lot of Windows hosting companies. Your best bet is to look at places such as aspin.com or totalasp.co.uk and browse their directories of hosting companies.

A couple which I'd recommend are:

- www.nodehosting.com (actually my current host)
- www.hostinguk.net
