ASP.NET File Upload Size Limit?

I have a project that imports a few CSV files from the user, and then runs them into a database.  The problem is there seems to be a size limit on the uploaded files and I cannot find how to remove or change that limit.  I have a 1.5MB file that works fine, but the 6MB and 7MB files do not work.  If I chop off the large files and get their sizes down they do work, of course then only part of the data is in the database.

Is there a real limit to the file size a browser can upload?  If so what is that limit?

Uploading 6MB and 7MB file if there are too many users might be a performance issue in future. SAFileUP control has an HTTP module for file upload that does not affect IIS performance while large files are being uploaded. Visit http://www.safileup.com/ for more information.
