Make sure you are running on a 64-bit OS for starters, and running a
64-bit browser (i.e. *not* the standard IE9 in Windows 7 x64 but the
64-bit version that you can't make your default browser for some
utterly braindead reason) if at all possible. IE9 64-bit does the
job pretty well, as does Chrome.<br>
<br>
And yes, Firefox isn't good enough.<br>
<br>
Unfortunately, uploads over 2GB isn't a feature a lot of users make
a fuss about, so the vendors can't be arsed to fix the horribly
buggy upload code they use.<br>
<br>
In short, use a better browser. Sorry if that doesn't help when
you've got several thousand managed desktops all using 32-bit IE7 or
something like that. :-(<br>
<br>
There really isn't a lot I can do about this, other than resort to
Flash (yuck! I'm not doing that) for the upload process. Sorry
there's no better news.<br>
<br>

<br>
It works beautifully on a Mac, as the apps are properly 64-bit as
well as the OS.<br>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">In both IE8 and Firefox

the upload will stall and the page will prompt “Are you sure

connection will
reset. After a few moments I can refresh and the site will
load again.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
