Alfred, Thanks for your info, but...
I understand (I think) what apps I need. The problem is that the Mac OS currently doesn't know how to talk Ethernet. The XP box is on the internet, but how do I get files from the XP box to the Mac? Or get the Mac talking Ethernet and download the files on the Mac? I also have a Linux machine at work that I could use if it will help, it is on the internet.
