And here's the complaint about them (i.zdnet.com) <- pdf file

1203974 2011-05-22 00:55:00 What? You and others thought it would be 100% secure??!!! hahaha. There is no such thing as 100% secure on a network. pctek (84)

1203976 2011-05-22 01:51:00 I always like my data where I can see it. Clean out and backup my inbox every year (or month) to my trusty WD. bot (15449)
1203977 2011-05-22 22:53:00 I just use HFS on a machine at home, I dont usually need to share that many large files.
But if I do its easy to just drag and drop in to the correct folder on that machine then give the other person my ip and port and then username and password

I don't use it for secure stuff just for software updates and patches for the techs out there which we support. Way easier to email a download link to Dropbox than telling them how to login to a FTP or web site to do it..
