Compress it (http://www.7-zip.org/) and upload it here.

Download and install 7-zip that I linked to in my last post.
When that is done, use Explorer to find your UFOAI base directory then select and right-click on your ufoconsole.log.
The option your want is 7-Zip -> Add to "ufoconsole.7z" (see first screenshot)
This will then compress your log and create a new file called ufoconsole.7z (see second screenshot)
Upload the 7z file here.
