How do you compress videos?

I have a video that is about 15 mins long, and I would like to post it on my website, but it is way to big. How do I compress/ make it smaller?

I really appreciate guys, thanks in advance!

You can use Flash, Quicktime, or Divx compressions - those make it really small - but using flash usualy kills the quality.

Are those free? I have quicktime, but I think I would need to upgrade to use those kinds of features. Thank you for the response
