Choosing A Webhost:
A web hosting service is a type of Internet hosting service that allows individuals and organizations to provide their own website accessible via the World Wide Web. Web hosts are companies that provide space on a server they own for use by their clients as well as providing Internet connectivity, typically in a data center. Web hosts can also provide data center space and connectivity to the Internet for servers they do not own to be located in their data center, called colocation. more...

You are already doing it correctly but you encountered a
mod_security bug. To avoid the problem you have just described,
the ARGS variable is not supposed to work against a raw payload
when multipart/form-data encoding is used.

I have now fixed the bug (committed to the CVS a minute
ago). If you continue to experience problems do let me know.

You can download the new version from the CVS here (although
it still doesn't show as I am writing this - you want 1.8.4RC3):
