P2P prog so I can send files to my friends only?

OzyOly · 5 Apr 2007 at 18:50

Hi. I want to send a file to my friend of about 20MB. It's too big for e-mail and msn keeps failing. Do you know of a clean p2p prog that will alow me to send the file to him at decent speeds? (I have a nicish 0.6Mbps u/l speed).

Cheers. I just didn't want to create a torrent for one file and considering I don't want to share this with anyone but my friend I was also declined to use torrents.

Cheers all.

You could setup your pc as an ftp.

I tried that once and got really confused. Can;t remember how to do it either. Do I have to configure my router at all?

Glad you sorted it, what did you do in the end?

I burnt to a disc and put it in the post. My PC is messed up, it freezes under heavy network traffic. I'm trying to replace my wireless NIC next week to see if it solves the problem. I hope it does.

install hamachi on both pc's, create a network, then do windows filesharing over that

or you could use winrar or 7zip to split the file into say 10x2mb files, then send them over msn/email

Yeah I was thinking doing the winrar thing. But I need to stop my #PC from freezing first. I don't know what's up with it.
