Hi there!

I recently managed to network a few computers together in my office. There are 4 computers (one is a Mac, rest are WinXP) and we have 1 shared folder.

This is probably a really stupid question (I'm a knob with computers) but is it possible to load software directly into this folder and have it available to all 4 users instead of loading it onto the 4 computers?

Many thanks for any help!

Well you could put the installation files in the share so you don't heve to go from PC to PC with the CD. But with out a type of tool for distribuitng software you will have to walk from PC to PC and install the software one at a time.
