Need to send 670Mb file - any ideas of websites to use?

[B3Svert]

Hi guys,

As per title, I have a large presentation I need to send to a partner in SA, needs to be there over the weekend so burning a CD and posting it is not going to be possible. Our internal FTP site appears to be down at the moment so does anyone know of any sites I can use (preferably free)? I have previously used yousendit.com but IIRC that has a file size limit of around 20Mb I think.

Cheers

Can you not split it using winrar into several archives and send it via Rapidshare? That has a 200MB limit

[Mr Trophy]

Send it VIA MSN? Might take a while, but you can just leave it and let it send away?

Turn it into a torrent and host it on a torrent site.

Try www.yousendit.com

Was just writing a reply to this when the partner emailed me another FTP site to try so will upload it there now.

Thanks for the quick responses though guys.

Yep, although I think it makes it universally available for the duration you're sharing it.

Yeah true, but no-ones going to search for it are they? Should be perfectly fine, think the person who's hosting it can limit it to one downloader as well.

You could always compress it into a ZIP/RAR file with a password too.

try windows sky drive if you need it in future you can have 5gb in there and make it secure.

very useful, the free option allows 100mb file limit, it does take a little while to upload though

j\k yousendit.com sounds like it will do the job

You can register for Interoute Express for free IIRC. http://www.interouteexpress.com/

Not sure there's any file limit.
