You've got some answers so I'll just focus on something that makes me go Eek! :-)
print "<FORM METHOD=\"post\" ENCTYPE=\"multipart/form-data\">\n"; print "<INPUT TYPE=\"FILE\" SIZE=\"25\" NAME=\"UPLOAD\">\n"; print "<input type=\"hidden\" name=\"login\" value=\"$login\">\n"; print "<input type=\"hidden\" name=\"password\" value=\"$password\">\n +"; print "<input type=\"submit\" value=\" Send File \">\n"; print "</FORM>\n";

If you don't use a module to construct your form, at least use here-docs:

print <<"END_OF_FORM"; <FORM METHOD="post" ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data"> <INPUT TYPE="FILE" SIZE="25" NAME="UPLOAD"> <input type="hidden" name="login" value="$login"> <input type="hidden" name="password" value="$password"> <input type="submit" value=" Send File "> END_OF_FORM

Keep your code readable. Ah, and don't pass around hidden fields with username/password, use e.g. a cookie to store a session key. See Basic cookie management.
