Hi - I was wondering if anyone allows SkyDrive through their school web filters? It seems like a good service that offers anyone with an account several GB of storage space on the web, but are there any possible security risks with allowing this service to be used in school?
It would be good to get opinions and views on this.
cheers

Just to check, you have whitelisted https://auth.blu.livefilestore.com as well?
