Impossible to upload an picture from my computer

[skathtlan]

Hello everyone,

I can't upload an picture on Magento since the massive attack in EU. Every time I get the message : Upload HTTP Error

I tried everything : reinstall browsers ( I tried on Chrome, IE, Firefox), desinstall McAfee and installed BitDefender instead

The problem seems to come from my computer, because I tried to upload the same picture from another computer and it worked. I tried from my computer with others pictures I already downloaded in the past and didn't work either.

The magento I use is 1.6.1.0 and I have a PC under windows 10.

I'm not from computer world, so I will need an answer understandable to non initiates ^^

Hope someone can help, I work from home and can't work since then and my boss is getting annoyed I don't add new articles...

It is more likely it is a server issue in my experience.  I would try resetting your file permissions. Then possibly contacting you hosting provider as it could be a mod_security issue.
