You could try zipping it and uploading it to H: via UCD connect.

WinZip is not installed on UCD PCs as standard, but you can install it - in the ZenWorks Applications program under Utilities.

I think WinXP actually might be able to zip files itself so you might even be quicker. Right click the file to see if there's anything like Archive or Compress.
