That’s totally understandable … If things don’t “feel” right you’ll be less inclined to continue.

You also brought up another issue: Buying an SSL certificate to secure the entire web site. SSL certificates only secure information transferred between your web browser and a web server. Since [ file ai ] uses a Java Applet to transfer the files peer-to-peer, having an SSL certificate on the site won’t affect that in any way.

But yes, it would help in the overall security “feel” of the site.

I’m looking for a service which which I can send large files securely to my counterpart at the shortest possible transfer rate. I’ll consideration using this service if can ‘feel’ or ’see’ that it is safe. Such as - able to see the address of the relevant web-page to begin with ‘https’ instead of ‘http’. And of course those certificates from CA matter. Since I do not know the creator of this web-sites in person, this is the only way that I can ‘feel’ and decide whether the service is secured. Being a non-technical person, I’ll take any security warning from from Microsoft or Firefox seriously.

Thanks

Well, I definitely think that this application might be more popular if signed… I mean, I’d click the ‘Run/Trust’ button.

However, at this stage, it is not worth the investment. Perhaps, once you get past the ‘beta’ phase, it’ll be a good idea… I still think it would be good to have a alternate non-applet version.

Don’t waste your money. I’m not going to send/share anything on the internet anywhere that I worry about being stolen. I think a little common sense goes a long way.

Excellent point. So excellent, in fact, that it spawned its own blog post: http://fileai.com/blog/?p=28
