Networking!

No, no. Not what you think! I'm asking about COMPUTER networking. I can't
get old XP home to connect to my new XP Pro computer. It hits the internet
fine and Pro can drag files from Home, but Home can't find Pro. I've seen many
tutorials suggesting different things, but they all fall short. Any ideas? You can
contact me here or PM, or my email address in my profile.

go to www.logmeun.com and set up an acct [free]on the first computor.....then go to the 2nd computor and log in to your acct and then add the 2nd computor.......now as long as either computor is on you can get to them from any where.......sort of like go to my computor only free, works like a charm and recomended by kim kommando......east to walk thru instructions....they have a pay modle as well but the free version works just fine......when you log in to one computor from the other it brings up every thing as seen on your desk top and u can do anything on it as if you wetre actually on that computor.....i use it and love it..........

I see where they have access through ipad and iphone, but what about Blackberry? I don't have any of those yet - but would like to get a Blackberry Torch (a business product vs. a personal product).

Isn't Go To My PC secure and password protected. Maybe the pay version has similar security features, but usually freebies of any sort have no security. I'd be wary of that. Go To My PC has three layers of logins. Does your free version have any password protection at all?
