HI TCM'S
I'm looking for a program that would let me send large files to others over the net. I'd like to send files in excess of 3 gig but my e-mail and msn messenger won't do the trick. Any ideas? Thanks.

That one won't allow anything over 1 gig. :vxd:

- Setup an FTP server (there are plenty of freeware ones)
- Split the program into separate, smaller compressed files with pretty much any compression program (WinRAR is the most popular).
- Use Trillian (recipient may need to install it as well, even though it's just a multi-client for MSN/ICQ/YIM/IRC)

If this is something you need to do on a regular basis you could install (full edition, not lite) and get the recipient to do the same. You can send any size file through icq.
