It is slick. There are alternatives. As long as it's not sensitive information your fine. Plus you should scan the folder with your security software all the time. Problem is that it's always synchronizing because it's always running and I'm not sure if all security software scans that synchronizing stream. So I'd at least set it to scan the Dropbox folder every day. -----Original Message----- From: dba-tech-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:dba-tech-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of Gary Kjos Sent: Friday, April 19, 2013 10:44 AM To: Discussion of Hardware and Software issues Subject: Re: [dba-Tech] Do you use Dropbox?
