I'm having a lot of complaints about large files (under 100MB) being undownloadable from mybigfile.com, from sendspace.com, etc.

I wonder if it is because of an issue with Korean servers not accepting certain large file free sites, in which case I would like to ask the board which sites that offer such free services as sending very large files for free are Korean-server-friendliest?

Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

I've never had any issues with uploading or downloading "large" files on/ from any websites. I upload and download gigs and gigs of files daily for my work and never had anything problems. I've never tried the websites you mentioned and I have no clue if they are slow here in korea.

Depending on why you need to send / receive you files... Why not just use cloud space from a server somewhere.

I would recommend Dropbox , Google Drive, Microsoft Skydrive. I've tried and use all of them for free. Dropbox comes with 2 to 5 gigs of space free. Google drive has 5 or 7 gigs free and Skydrive is 25 gigs free. Should be enough for you.

Unless you're distributing illegal files and sharing the links alot.... If its for personal use than the above servers should be more than adequate

Could you set up a new email account, give the password to everyone who needs access, and email the files to it?
