    Has any of you tried or do you use a program called OnShare?

    I've just installed it & it seems to be useful, just wondering if anyone else here is, or has used it & what they think of it?

    I use Hamanchi too BlackWizard but this is not the same.

    OnShare appears to be strictly for file sharing & private chat between two or more connected computers. You choose who connects, what you share & who you share it with. It seems to be very easy to use too. You just right click a file or folder & choose share, you can then choose who from your list of contacts or all from your list of contacts. Once you share a file with someone they get notified instantly & vise verse. Any files you have shared on you system show a little flag on the file icon just like the little black arrow you see on desktop shortcuts, you know at a glance if a file on your system is shared or not.

    Files that are shared with you from another persons computer can be opened viewed, run, dragged & dropped or copied & pasted.
