What is a small software that can do file transfers from me to another person?

I sometimes want to send myself files from work to my home computer and Yahoo Messenger and AIM are too bloated. Is there something smaller/faster/more portable I can use? I want PTP software, not FTP. Thanks!

Get a G-mail account. You can send 20MB atachments now and there is a storage limit of 2 GB.





Go to best Buy or Circuit city and grab a USB Jump Drive. you can get a 1GB drive for under $50, and sometime cheaper. Put the files on the drive, go home plug it in and transfer them to your home PC.





Setup Ultra VNC on your home computer and remote into it and do a file transfer.





The list goes on and on.





Also the newer versions of Messanger aren't too bad for transferring files. They were really bad a year or two ago. the only issue you run into there is that if you dont' accept or decline the transfer from your home PC it'ss cancel it after a little bit. FTP's are a pain. i had quite a few setup on my home computer and got sick of people trying to break into them so i un-installed them all.
Reply:The best way to do that is to get a flash drive there cheap you plug it into your usb port the computer treats it as a hard drive just copy our files to it then unplug it and take it home and plug it into your computer there and copy the files from it to your computer then erase the files off the flash drive(this is the best and fastest way to transfers files because no one can get ahold of them (like off the Internet wail there being


transferred)
