I see that you have a part that mention hamachi. I've been using this excellent program for awhile and i stumbled onto some problems during the use of hamachi with machines that did not offer admin rights (which basically prevented me from installing hamachi). I managed to get around this problem, though, by makin a portable version of hamachi which i can bring with me and start from my usb disk. The guide to making your own portable Hamachi came from the excellent people behind LogMeInWiki.com, and can be found here. A portable version of Hamachi makes the program =F3 so much more flexible for uses with most types of machines without the need of installing it. The first time you use it you can set it up the way you like it to be, and you will never have to do it again. If you are carrying it with you on a usb disk, just plug the disk in a computer with internet access, start it and your set to go. Hope this was usefull in some way :) On Nov 9, 9:00 pm, "Gina Trapani, Lifehacker editor/author" wrote: > Hi all, > > Well, it'll be a happy St. Patty's day: my publisher tells me the > book will be shipping from their warehouse on March 17th, barring any > catastrophes.
