3rd party proggie for puter-2-puter

any suggestions for wanting to transfer files from my system to a friends system over the net......something really basic. friends are only mildly literate when it comes to proggies so make it simple,......


thanks

I haven't used it, but it looks like it could be what you want.

I don't think VNC supports file transfers, it's just a remote control app. You could run a FTP server, log into his computer with VNC, and work his FTP client though.

AIM and ICQ work as well as anything though.
