Yep you need G-Drive however Google doesn't endorse or support third party applications such as Gmail Drive, but it's still useful and good :P

For example: if you're allowed to install programs etc


RE: Great storage site by benellis2007 on 03-22-2005 at 09:58 PM

RE: Great storage site by mwe99 on 03-22-2005 at 10:02 PM

Ahh you probably couldn't use it at school then.. unless you installed it or copied it to a CD-RW or USB pen and run it off that

RE: Great storage site by mwe99 on 03-22-2005 at 10:24 PM

Nope but if you use it with G-Drive you get a free gig of hard drive space so it's useful in that sense ;)

I don't use it for mail, i use it for storage!!!!!! :)

RE: Great storage site by mwe99 on 03-22-2005 at 10:37 PM

According to Google

"We pay close attention to security. First, we focus significant time and resources to ensure that user accounts and information are not misused by Google employees. A limited set of employees are authorized to access user accounts, they are educated about the importance of maintaining user privacy, and their access to user accounts is recorded. Our employees are also contractually required to access accounts and log data only for quality, security, audit, and other internal business purposes. Second, we implement technology and procedures to try to make sure that external parties cannot access or modify users’ personal information on our servers. These technologies and procedures include industry standard methods as well as our own proprietary methods. "
