RE: Same as everyone else: Problem with Vista / XP network!

We ended up punting OSAsync. WAY too much of a resource hog, and tech
support was horrid. Even when I finally got the computers to connect,
OSAsync kept fatally crashing all the PC's. Have since moved to a product
called Easy2Sync. It's in Germany, but the tech support is outstanding. A
bit trickier to configure, but so far it seems to be working fine. Much more
efficient than OSAsync. Web site is http://www.easy2sync.com. Good luck!
