    I have a Windows XP Laptop and a Windows Vista Desktop computer and theres some stuff that I want to have access to on both computers, but I dont want to keep burning the data to a disc to do it. Ive heard you can wirelessly share files. Is this possible to do? My laptop is completly wireless and has internet acess and Wi-Fi.

    Some help please.

    1. share the folder of files (right click the folder and select sharing from the menu - jump thru what ever hoops required).

    2. type the ip address of the computer with the shared files on it into the explorer of the other computer, located the shared folders.
