Abstract

A system and method for the deposit and withdrawal of files from a central repository of virtual safety deposit boxes is provided. The invention uses an Internet web site and web browser to create the virtual safety deposit box metaphor. Users can freely create and use the boxes and inform others of files that may be retrieved from his boxes. To access the box, the user simply points his web browser to the URL where the boxes are located. The box facilitates the transfer of files from one user's desktop to another's over the Internet. The box itself can be implemented in a variety of ways including the use of a relational database.
