Onshare – Share Files And Chat With Friends In Complete Privacy
O. James Samson - November 24, 2006Just found a new way to share files and chat with friends in complete privacy. All thanks to this software, Onshare.
OnShare is a free way to share files and chat with your friends in complete privacy. It’s a simple download that directly networks computers together. The fact that you get to control exactly what your friends can see and get their hands on really makes this useful tool. You only share files with people you invite so you know they’re from a trusted source and the files you share stay exactly where they are on your computer.
One cool feature that this software has is that its pioneering technology lets you reach into your friends’ computers, grab whatever you want and use it just as if it were on your own computer. And, if you have more than one computer, you can easily share between them wherever they are in the world.
The security of your files and chat is guaranteed as the file sharing and messaging is encrypted at 2048 bit, so secure that no one can intercept your chats and files. It is even said that the security model was conceived and developed by ex–military scientists. [I don’t know how true that is]
In case you are wondering how this works, your friends appear as drives on your computer, meaning you can access their shared files directly from within Windows. View, drag, drop, copy and paste just like you’re used to.

Dear James,
I am working for OnShare and would like to confirm that OnShare’s security model was indeed conceived by ex MoD scientists. The two main developers behind the product have worked for the MoD and related government departments for over 13 years. Subsequently they joined Z GROUP to develop OnShare using their previous expertise .
I hope this clarifies your question.
Warm regards, Saskia Hopmann
