Thank you very much for the immediate answer. You can call my site "huge" an
d
yes I do have some files larger then 1MB. I'm always having problems
uploading files using FrontPage. (server timeouts).
The structure of my site is something like this:

root
folder1
subfolder1
sub-subfolder1
sub-sub-subfolder1
file1.htm
file2.htm
file3.htm ... etc.
folder2 ... etc.

Do you think that converting folder1, folder2,... folder100 etc. to subwebs
will fix the problem? I do have too many html pages but I don't know how to
use DB 
(Is there something the server's administrator should do about subwebs?)
Thank you in advance for your help.
