zdnet has a utility called slice that allows you through a DOS prompt to divide a
file into equal parts which will each fit onto a disk, and will add a small splice
utility to one of the disks to allow you to put the file back together on another
computer. This is a free utility.

It's much easier to use WinZip, which most people have already.
