Anybody used this program yet? What do you think?


Hamachi gives you LAN over the Internet.

Virtually any application that works over local/home networks can also be used over Hamachi networks.

Think - Windows File Sharing (http://forums.hamachi.cc/viewtopic.php?t=6337), iTunes (http://forums.hamachi.cc/viewtopic.php?t=4202), Remote Desktop (http://forums.hamachi.cc/viewtopic.php?t=4078), Remote Assistance or even gaming (http://forums.hamachi.cc/viewtopic.php?t=180) - all fully encrypted, authenticated and peer-to-peer.

Use for quite some time, its awesome and very easy to use.
You need to open a port for it in your firewall though.

Ive used hamatchi for months playing OFP amongst other games, its fantastic and damn easy to use. Grab an IP and off you go no fuss. Highly recommended...by me p-)

Sorta sounds like Xbox -connect that I used for Halo 1. It was basically a LAN on the internet so we played system-linked with people from europe and other places.

why use a third party software when you can just make a VPN with normal everyday windows 2K/XP/Vista?

Takes a little know how and having a little program do alot of it for you makes things a easier i guess.
