Hello all,

I want to swap files with my friend. They are larger than 10 mb (the files, not my friend) so email won't work. He said I should look into FTP. Everything I read about FTP has to do with uploading stuff to my personal web page. I don't have a personal web page, I just want to send files back and forth to my buddy. Yes, I know about Yousendit and BigUpload, etc. but I'd like something a little more personal, and faster if possible. BigUpload handles larger files than Yousendit but takes forever to upload.

I think I can set up a personal web page with my ISP, if I must, but well . . any suggestions?

Thanks,
Ken
