Http File Server (HFS) 2.1d build 086

[Dark Star]

Http File Server (HFS) is an easy to use drag and drop file server for personal file sharing. It runs as a standalone executable and does not require any installation. The program is very easy to use, just drag a file into it to share it with the world. You can customize the port it is running on, specify the IP address and monitor connections from the tray icon. HFS presents the shared files on a simple HTML page, that includes the file name and size. With some HTML knowledge, you can completely customize the HTML template to meet your preference. HFS can also integrate into Windows Explorer, allowing you to easily share files from the right-click menu.

Its like DC++. You'll need to get hold of address of different servers (people) to get the file you want, right? Kind of like Rapidshare folder system.

Guys,

I need to transfer a 90mb file to my friend.

So using this, can we just open the server, share that file and ask my friend to contact me thru this IP that is assigned to me? does it work that way?

 

[Params7]

Yes, apparently.

Though I would suggest you upload your file to some free server first (like Rapidshare, Mega) so your friend and others can downloadi n full speed and not be limited to your upload limit.
