Sharing HD contents via the internet.

[Ventricle]

Hi, is there anyway to network for example me and a friends pc so we can use eachothers HD contnets through the internet? Can you do it through windows or do you need to buy software? Any help is greatly appreciated.

VPN.

Are you talking programs, or just the contents of your hard drive, like media files or whatnot?

Both would be nice, but probably just documents and media.

Don't know if this is exactly what you are looking for, but here is the address for GoTo MyPC.

You can also try PC Anywhere.

You have many choices for sharing files over the internet:

VPN
SSH
FTP

I'd personally go with some VPN connection which you should be able to make windows do. But you could always use regular FTP, but restrict it to just your friends IP addresses. Or indeed you could use SSH which is very secure.
