Great piece of info. It is certainly good if people want to submit large files. But two things are there, when you do not register, neither are you bound by any legal binding about the data you are sending neither is the company. Also the recipient address and your address is compromised. So it is always safer not to send confidential documents over such sites unless registered, even personal photos.

Thanks for this piece, I realized that most of our Internet service providers(ISP) here in my country limit their customers on the number of bytes that can either upload or download making it very difficult to download useful materials and even joinning some of this useful sites highlighted by you in your contribution. For instance it was posted in one of the resources on this site about 4Shared.com and I immediately try to join to solve the problem of downloading and uploading but to my surprise my ISP did not allow me to join and Im on two ISP but the same thing happen. Please advise me on what to do cos most valuable materials are big.
Thanks
Olufemi
