As was stated in the answer to [[#Adding little pictures (avatars) to your forum name| this question]], there are plenty of web service providers, most of them for free, that you can go to and upload your game.

I'd suggest their service for extremely large files (upwards of 5 or 10 megabytes, for instance).
