Filenames on the web are different than those on the desktop. Empty spaces and strange characters doesn’t belong to web space. Enter UploadPlus: you can set your rules and clean your files’ name while they upload. Three basic rules:
<ul>
<li>keep only alphanumeric [A-Za-z] and digits, spaces and strange characters stripped out;</li>
<li>convert spaces and strange characters into dashes (-)</li>
<li>convert spaces and strange characters in underscores (_)</li>
</ul>
You can apply website-based or date-based prefix, even a custom prefix. Lowercase or Uppercase? Your choice! 
Some default prefix:
<ul>
<li>time/date based timestamps via PHP date()</li>
<li>blog name/slug</li>
<li>random</li>
<li>and many more!</li>
</ul>
UploadPlus can also transliterate filenames (text conversion from a non-latin script to raw latin characters). 
You can preview settings in the media settings page without uploading files.
