Alan, I've been using a free drop box account for a couple of months now with no problems to my knowledge. I have shared folders with some family and friends and it has worked out great

I cannot remember the specifics, but some time ago, I heard that those "Drop Box" accounts were a security risk in some way, not specifically in the manner of viruses or that kind of thing, but that it opened a hole in your Windows Security systems or such. I am currently using a paid account with Sendspace, and it serves me very well, but this friend does not like Sendspace, using the FREE account, one must go through a lot of advertising, and I understand what he means with a FREE account. Any comments regarding your experiences or having a "Drop Box" account, I would appreciate it very much.
