4Mb upload limit?

I changed the max request size option in the machine.config file, and it
seems to still block me from sending anything larger than 4Mb. I tried
restarting aspnet_wp.exe, IIS web service and even rebooting.

web.config can contain limiting settings as well. Does it?

John,
In addition to setting the "maxRequestLength" value, make sure to set
"executionTimeout" to a value that will allow the upload to occur over
a slow connection.
