Recommend a free file storage provider?

In jest (hopefully), my sig-o, who set up our home network and is the "administrator," said he would delete all my files if .... So I want a place beyond his control to dump a copy of all my files just in case. Yahoo Briefcase seems only able to take one "file" (a term meaning document, I assume) at a time, but I have many folders full of documents/files/pictures that would take hours to upload one at a time. Can anyone recommend a free storage alternative that I can get to from any location by knowing a password or whatever? Thanks.

Update:

External hard drive? I have no idea what to get, whether I could find it later, etc.

Gdisk or gmail whatever requires a Mac and I have a PC. Xdrive is AOL and one of the last two required that I download software. Talk about tipping off the administrator!

I still need help. Thanks.
