FileSplitter Instructions
For the 2 Gigabyte + Do Not Call List

The Do Not Call List database now has over 200 million numbers in it.  As each phone number has 10 digits, or bytes, that makes the nationwide database over 2 Gigabytes.  Unfortunately many software programs have a 2 GB limit.  The DoNotCallSoftware includes the free FileSplitter utility for your convenience.  You only have to do this operation the first time, when you download the entire list.  Thereafter, such as each month, you will only need to download the new numbers from the DoNotCall.Gov web site.
