Howdy,

Trying to upload a wmv file, 230 MBs, to a filesharing site to send to a friend.

Tried Hotfile, **********. and Sharingmatrix ... received an error and/or fail message each time I tried.

I know there is a way to separate a larger file into smaller components using HJSpit, send each piece, and the rejoin them. but I think this is beyond the technical capacity of the person I am sending the file to.

Any suggestions are appreciated,

use a split rar archive, anyone who can uncompress a file should be able to handle that.
 
I think Mediafire does 200MB, you can also split the file which you should do. I would say maybe 115MB so uploading a single file can be easier for you that's unless you have a super fast Internet.
 
^ his files are too big. both only allow 200mb iirc. megaupload might allow more.
 
http://www.sendspace.com allows 300 MB per file, and they have a great (spyware/adware free) small "wizard" tool app that lets you manage and upload files directly through an app rather than their web-based upload (but you can do that too!). I've found it's a little more tolerant for any minor connection drops, etc. than the web. And I agree with Corny, for a file bigger than, use a RAR spanned archive and upload each part, then send the URL to the recipient and he can fetch each part and extract on his end.
 
This is not going to be helpful to the vast majority of people here; but users of Ubuntu have free access to Ubuntu One cloud storage for sharing of files.

Ubuntu One allows single file sizes of up to 5 GB (assuming your ftp client doesn't choke first while trying to upload that).

You get 2 GB of storage space free forever when you register. If you are willing to pay $10/month, you get 50 GB of storage.

For the free 2 GB plan, you must use Ubuntu to access the data. The paid 50 GB plan allows access from any OS (Windows, Mac, or Linux).
