I have connected both my PC's with a crossover cable, i can ping both ways, play lan games.
Now is there a no hassle, zero config app to share files and folders between the two PC's?

I want to avoid enablling file sharing, since I am on another network (for my internet) which I don't trust. Not sure If it is possible to enable sharing for only one network? If it is plz tell me how to go abt it.

Thanks
