Conclusion:

SendItOnTheNet is a nice free service to securely send large files. USP of this service is that encrypts the file, before it reaches servers of SendItOnTheNet, so no one, including SendItOnTheNet, can read content of your file. Major downside is that max file size allowed is only 80 MB, which is quite small. Still, if you have small files that you want to share securely, SendItOnTheNet is a good option.
