File Sharing

Can someone help me here ? I have three different known computers running Win XP on three ADSL different connections and I want to share audio files between these-computers-only via the internet. What is the simplest way of doing this ?

Help appreciated
dave

Re: File Sharing

complex solution: VPN
easy solution: Windows Live Messenger or something like that.

Where are the PCs located? How many files and how big?

I agree, MSN (windows messenger) makes file sharing easy

Re: File Sharing

Great ! Thanks very much for the answers. Using an instant messenger had never occured to me, and I was expected to have to configure a VPN ! The files are our band recordings and mixes that I want to share easily amongst the band members, with minimal hassle.
thanx
dave

Re: File Sharing

if they are all in one house you can file share over a WLAN connection (just select a file or multiple files) but i save it on a free website so i can access any files wherever i am. Great for internet cafes at airports, (no memory stick to loose and all password protected)
