Cool. Theres also another one called QuickTime MOV Files Converter 2 that looks like its specific to what you need, just in case you have probs with TVC. Just found it, never tried it.

Edit: trial version has 50% conversion limit, so forget it.

When I go to Save Movie File, it asks where to save it, blah blah, then when I click to start saving it, it gives me a message that says:

Windows movie maker cannot save the movie to the specified location. Verify that the original source files in your movie are still available, that the saving location is still available, and that there is enough free disk space available, and then try again.

The file is only 17mb and i have 119GB free space on my laptop.

You can split it and email it to him. Make sure he can reattach.

I think part of the video you're trying to save is corrupted, that would be my only guess as to why it won't save.

Easy Video Splitter to split/rejoin the files if you don't have one already.
