We have 6 gb free on the C:\ drive. To handle 10GB files I should probably move the temp folder elsewhere. Any tips on where this info is kept? >The latest version of CF also has upload throttle and file size limits >available.

What if I used a java app to handle the upload? Would that get around this issue? Since moving large files is going to become a bigger and bigger issue, do you think it would make sense for MM/A to build-in some large-file handling capabilities into a future upgrade? >Part of the problem with 2GB files is that they tend to be security >risks as well as the obvious problems that they cause during >upload/download.
