> Thank you for the simple information.  I have been using Giver and did not
realize how easy it was to set up simple file sharing between two
computers.  What I have have wanted to do is set up something like "go to my
pc" but the lack of a static IP address on my DSL connection has always
confused me when I attempt any solution.  This is a nice little baby step of
learning.  Did not mean to change the topic but I wanted to thank you for
also providing some easy to understand instructions.
