WTF I've never heard of that file extension before but I'm gonna take a stab in the dark that you made it on Microsoft Windows Movie Maker??  If that is the case I'd bet there is a way you can get it to save as or export to .wmv seeing as how that is MS' most standard video format these days.

I would have assumed that it would have an option somewhere under file to export it as something else.  I'm at work now, but I'll check it out later when I get home.

:bs: there HAS to be a way to use a different file format. i have used movie maker many times. unfortunately i dont have it on the comp im using right now, but somewhere in the process theres an option to choose the format. if i get around to it tonight, ill check the other computer in my house that has it, and see how to do it and post back here.

well, how big is the file you made, in megabytes (MB)? for uploading a video online you ought to keep it under 15 mebagytes if you can. i have broadband and can download 15 megs on average in a minute or less, but for users like yourself with dialup it will be much longer. upload always takes longer than download also. so it will take more time to upload the same file than it would to download it after its put online. however, 4 hours is awfully long.

tell me how big it is, and how good your sound and video quality is right now, and we'll see how far we can compress the file and still have the quality reasonable.

Can you burn it to disk and take it to a local library with high speed connections to upload it there?

^^^ aha! now theres a thought. yes 35 megs is gonna bring your dialup connection to its knees trying to upload. but its also 3 minutes long so i dont know if you oughta make the quality even less.
