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.

UploadPlus : File Name Cleaner

Clean file names and enhance security while uploading.

Protect Uploads

The uploads directory is where the files of the WordPress library are stored. Unfortunelty, this directory is not protected. A person who wants to see all your library could list it instantly going to : http://yourwebsite/wp-content/uploads . This plugin will hide the content by adding an index.php file on the root of your uploads directory or by setting an htaccess which will return a 403 error (Forbidden Access).
<ul>
<li>Depending on your server setting, the htaccess option could be disabled.</li>
</ul>
Available languages :
<ul>
<li>English</li>
<li>Français</li>
<li>Español</li>
<li>Italian (thanks to Marko97)</li>
</ul>

Protect uploads

Do not download. The plugin has been changed not too long ago and it now infects your wordpress installation, and possible spreads itself to other sites if you are on shared hosting.

It's a virus

Protect your uploads directory from people who want to browse it. Avoid browsing of your uploads directory by adding a htaccess or index.php file.
