Thanks, but I have already explored that territory.
I guess I should have been more specific.
I need the service to be completely online without downloading anything.
And I need to be able to use automated logging on, file-transferring, and logging off with a batch file. Meaning that a gui interface is not necessary.
Much appreciated.
Look up DYNAMIC DNS and use that with your own server.

Unfortunately I don't have a server.
Ftp is all I really need with at least 50 mb of storage or more.
I would buy a server, but considering that a small ftp account is all I would need it for is sort of like hitting a fly with a sledge hammer.
Good idea though.
Thanks again.
But today I find machines cast off by the hundreds around town that could be your 50 MB server along with that dynamic DNS.
Any old machine from the dumpster or closet will do for this.
