Probably the info here is 'lil bit' outdated but nevermind.. Quite often we would like to send/share large sized file (>100MB) but are restricted with size limitation of 'one-click hosting' sites or even worse traffic/bandwidth limit which sometimes makes the recipient wait hours (maybe with LAN). 1) One way of getting around this is to use file splitting application like GSplit and uploading the files to common file sharing sites like YouSendIt. Of course, 7 days time limit is applicable 2) The other service that I've used in the past is SendThisFile which has no file size restriction but 3 days (this was 1 year ago) time limit is applicable. Quite reasonable if the recipient has a stable Internet connection. Another awesome service is steekR which provides 1GB storage but has no time restriction. 3) Not to forget, few months back I have read that Lycos Mail offers 3GB free storage with no restriction on the file size you can send. Kindly ensure that the recipient also opens an account. - Anyway find the service that best suits you and remember nothing is perfect!
