During my search for scripts for my site, I have found the followings:

Gmail downloader http://www.worldwide...freescripts.htm
This script logs into your account and downloads files stored. You can use it to link the files to be shared and transferred.

gDrive
http://mods.cc/modules/news/
With this program you can upload higher than 10MB per attachment rule set by gMail.

www.yousendit.com http://www.yousendit.com
Speaking of attachments, if you need to send more than what your mail box can handle, this site will offer up to 1GB attachment. Simply upload to their website and send the link to be downloaded to a recipient. Cool, ain't it?

And last but not least,

gMail storage drive http://www.allscoop.com/tools/gmail/
This handy thing-a-ma-bob allows you to use your gMail account as virtual file storage. You can access your files within Internet Explorer! I think you can do so much with that.

Good luck

Thanks for the links. I already use the last one, and it's super useful. To get gDrive you have to register :lol: yousendit.com expires your fies if they aren't downloaded within 7 days, but besides that it's really good. Gmail downloader sounds really nice, but I don't really need it. Thanks!

Is there any programme that allows you to continually increase your web storage space like Gmail?

Hahah, no, I'm not being greedy... *yet*...

GMail drive isn't working for me. I have Outpost Firewall pro. What will I add in my allowed list to allow GMail drive to access my account?

Only problem is if google finds out of people are using their email storage as a virtual drive... But not a bad idea. I have enough space though to carry files around, I have a 20 gig pocket USB 2 drive -_-

Impressive! But don't you think Google will find out sooner or later, and sue them? Or what if Google has this free storage, and rivals Streamload.com some day? *please oh please oh please!*

I'd love to use it as a storage drive, but I have a dial-up connection, so I'd rather stick to my CDs. What'll happen if Google does a search and deletes all the storage files? Then, it's better to take matters into your hands.
