Not that you directly answered any of my questions...
- What does the error look like? Is it inside the web page (just text
inside the web browser) or is is a pop-up (a windows error message)?
- What is the file extension of the file you are attempting to upload
(*.doc, *.xls, *.txt, *.exe, etc.)

Given what you have, however:
I would bet you have not uploaded a Microsoft Word Document created in Word
2007 to this web site before?
So the file extension in this case is "*.docx". It may well be they do not
yet accept said format. Contact them and find out.

In the meantime:

Open the document you created (In microsoft Word 2007) and do a "Save As"
and change the type to "Word 97-2003" and save it as a new name and attempt
to upload that newly saved document (which will have the *.doc extension
now.)
