Noob to Premiere Pro 1.5 - Exporting Files are HUGE

I have this 20 minute video I edited, I rendered it and it was over 5,000mbs! I was wondering, would anyone know how to get a video at a sufficient quality, perhaps 800x600 resolution, to a size suitable to be downloaded online? (200mb's is my ceiling), but rendering takes hours.. experimenting would take a life time.. im looking for a shortcut by coming here - maybe someone knows. If you do, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks
 
800x600 is pretty high resolution, about 40% higher pixel count than DVD. It's not going to be a small file no matter what you do.

Take the render you have now & encode it using a good codec (h.264, divx, etc.). With only 200 megs to work with you're going to have to sacrifice quality, but it's doable.

video streamed online is almost alwasy in CIF resolution, AKA 320x240. If you export a CIF video at 320x240 and use a codec of some sort, it will be great for online.
 
I've tried the WMP9 Codec and it seems as though the files are still excessivly large. Are there more options that need to be tweeked with besides the Codec used? I dont understand much about encoding.
