    The movie files are probably too big for the GMail server to hold..

    Try using a program called "GMail Drive" (google for it), which gives you a sort of extra hard drive, which is virtual, and when you log into it you are actually logging into your GMail account.

    About .exe files - GMail do not allow executables for security reasons.. however, you can RAR them up using WinRAR and it should work

    gmail allows max 10mb attachments
    if the extension is not allowed simply rename it eg .exe > .bla

    if the vid files are really big, you can rar them to be under 10mb (split) then upload them. or you can use yousendit.com .
