I've got a question. Whats the name of, or type of program that allows me to connect to another computer's hard drive through another computer. I want to set up a network that links my computer at work to my computer at home. There is a firewall at my work that I have to find a way around. I remember seeing something like this for Apple but not PC. The OS at work is XP Pro SP2 and I've got XP Pro SP2 and Vista at home. Thanks!

Almost sounds like you want to VPN or remote desktop onto your work computers. I thin kVPN is what you are after. Or what Alstock posted. Networking is not my strong suit but I know I use VPN to work from home and get to my network resources at the office.
