 * I am trying to upload a wmv file I published on computer however I continue to
   get this error: HTTP error and it still says it is crunching the video and never
   uploads.
    The file size is 40.6mb as it is a mindmovie consisting of photos and
   music. I am on Internet Explorer and have tried Google Chrome as well however
   I don’t know if a browser makes the difference. I also tried to upload from you
   tube as I have it on there however all I get displayed is a big yello shaded 
   box inserted within my text of my post I have written and all it is when I preview
   post is just a big blank are where the video should be. Can someone pleas help
   me as I really want to move forward from this. Thank you heaps Sharon Whyte
