A while back I did some research with a view to assisting in the financing of this new startup company, Iwormhole Communications. They run a website called http://www.largefilesasap.com/.
If you need to transfer a large file, say 35 megs or even up to 2 gigs, you just go on to the site and browse for you file to transfer and away you go. Unfortunately, the browsers in use today were not designed to be used to transfer large amounts of data. So, the company set out to design a new system to handle file transfers, but to do so ultimately on a peer to peer basis with data encryption to AES 256 standards (this is just about government proof).
They are running the new system in beta testing right now, but it works well. This is a small desktop application that launches with a click. You simply drag and drop files into the rotating "wormhole" and the file uploads and sends a message to your email recipient in record time. It can be downloaded at http://www.xoomfile.com/. If you happen to be a mortgage broker, lawyer, accountant, Realtor, doctor or any professional who needs to be able to transfer very large files on a highly confidential basis, such as an MRI for example, this program will come in very handy.
It is free right now. But as the company moves forward, there will no doubt be a plan to generate revenues from regular users. Being a Realtor, mortgage broker and closet musician, I highly recommend this handy file sharing system.... No spam, no ads, no data phishing. I am advised that about 40,000 people a month are using it!
Good Luck...
