Are there any hideous security etc. problems with Dropbox I should know about? It sounds good, and my family and I seem to be exchanging a lot of baby photos etc. which it might help with, but does it leave any holes in the PC's security, bombard you with spam, or anything like that?

Too late - sorry, I set one up over breakfast this morning.

If I'm reading it right I'd need a separate account which everyone has access to in order to share a whole folder - I don't think Dropbox lets you have more than one account on a single computer, so since I need it for my own documents too the photos will have to wait.

Never mind. ;)

Not really, you can have private, shared and public folders in the same account.

I'll have to take a closer look at the documentation - thanks again!
