Yes, this should work like any Internet url.

Please visit http://hotfile.com and sign up as a new user. Then each time
you visit hotfile.com you will be taken to the page where you can click on
'upload file'. It transfers files at standard upload speeds and there is a
paid premium option if you want fast downloads, which I don't use because I
don't upload large files normally.

Rgds,
