Just began using Dropbox a couple of weeks ago.

“Seems to be” secure, but I treat it exactly the same way I do anything else with internet connections: It only “talks” to a single application, gets ONLY secured data which gets run through firewalls, AV and Spyware sweeps before it goes into a remote storage HD. (And that HD doesn’t get to LOOK at anything else unless I give it specific direction to do so...with about a half dozen password stops along the way)

No, I’m not paranoid.

I’ve just worked around these damn boxes for too long to trust ‘em as far as I can throw the entire house.

Yeah I am using it too but treat it with caution.

Normally just stuck programs and apps in there.

Some pics, no personal data.
