this may be a stupid question,
but is there maybe a program that lets me send big files (like around 1g) directly to my friends computer taking advantage of having the same isp and living in same country? (i mean in speed) or is there no real advantage?

she doesnt trust teh torrentz Rolling Eyes
and i cant really think of something.
thanks

You could always use an ftp transfer. Your transfer will go via the shortest route. So it's safe to say that it will stay on the same network as your ISP.

You could have one of you setup FileZilla Server and the other use FileZilla client which are both Open Source Free pieces of software. Pretty easy to setup and your best bet at a direct connection.

Oh an because the file is so large, FileZilla allows file resuming if there is a break in your connection for any reason.

Well, if you've got Telenet or ADSL it'll take a long while to send, and will take a reasonable chunk of your download limit. Maybe you should buy a 1gb memory stick, they're really cheap nowadays.

GOOGLE !

Man.. I remember the days when people didn't ask questions and just used google.. OH YEAH, THATS NOW! Razz

WASTE wont make things go any faster, but its a good program, it will protect you from your ISP and it's pretty easy to get setup! Well worth looking into for transferring files between small groups of people!
