Posting files on a web site (How)

Well, the good news is, the Ork and Tyranid ab files are done for 2nd
edition (this after a hideous mistake where I erased the Ork files
and had to rebuild them). My friend, j3000w, is trying to post the
exported file on his website, but he says that Yahoo doesn't like it
(he's on geocities, I'm assuming by this cryptic comment that
something about the file is not allowing him to post it).
Apparently, the problem seems to be the "ab" extension itself as he
asked if he could change it (to which I replied 'no'). Anybody have
any ideas on how to correct this so that he can put the file up for
download on his site?

You could just export it as a .zip file, which would be suboptimal but
would work properly with Yahoo (imbeciles that they are). Or you could
just upload the .ab file to the ab-files eGroup, which I'm sure all the
people who email me saying "do u have and 2nd ed fileZ?" would
appreciate

Some hosts won't allow files with certain extensions on their sites... which
seems kind of silly to me, but anyway, he can upload the file to the site
with a different extension at the end, and a note on the page saying to
change the extension to .ab when downloading the file. Or find a more
accomidating host.
