 * When i use flash uploader to upload images or documents i get the error shown
   below.
 * > Bad Request
   >  Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand.
   > Client sent malformed Host header
   > Web Server at okuogren.com
 * Although i’ve read hundreds of topics related to bad behaviour or bad request,
   i coulndt work it out.
    I looked into db to see if there was a hidden admin. 
   I looked in source code to see injection the eval base code… js exploit… I tried
   to refresh permalinks to default… I gave an absolute path to wordpress uploads
   folders I disabled all the plugins but nothing changed. I have two websites running
   the same template and on same webserver [http://www.okuogren.com](http://www.okuogren.com)(
   flash uploader gives error) – [http://www.ingilizceogretim.com/](http://www.ingilizceogretim.com/)(
   this works)
 * Anyone any idea pls_?

 * It is entirely possible that a server-side security script, like `mod_security`,
   is preventing PHP from uploading files. You should probably check with your hosting
   provider.

 * Thanks for your ideas, it’s okay now. It was because of hosting provider. They
   took okuogren.com to ingilizceogretim.com’s server, and trouble’s gone away…
