I have made some email vids with my logitech cam. They come out as exe files, which are very large files. Is there a way of converting these files to another format, such as wmf, avi, etc. , so that they are not so large? I dont know if wmf, avi are the proper ones to use , so please excuse my ingnorance :) Any help would be appreciated, thanks .

You can try the DIVX codec which is a really good compression sceme for reducing the file size. The Windows WMV format is also really good at reducing the file size while maintaining decent video quality.
