Ok, so I keep trying to transfer a rather large file to my girlfriend through AIM. Unfortunately, her connection seems a little sketchy and I cant get it through fast enough before she gets disconnected. It takes a while to upload 450mb's when you can only get 14-16kbps because of the ****ty AIM tranferring. Is there another way? I can't figure out how to make the files on my computer available to her but there must be a simple way. I should warn you, I'm an idiot with computers, I'm lucky I've figured out how to surf the internet, let alone this crap. Thanks a lot guys!

If I had a running vehicle to drive it the 30 miles to give it to her, that'd be a valid option rockenreno ;)
