Sharing Files

With a home network, what is the best way to share files?

I have about 4 PC connected to a router (hard wired and wireless). Should I just use one PC to share files or is there a way to share files between all 4 at once?

All PCs can ping each other so I know they can connect.

What would be the next step after I right click and say "share"? After this I'm kinda lost.:confused:
 
Right click on file or folder, go to sharing and security, then to sharing, then click sharing, then share this folder over a network and name it.
 
You can access the shares you set up in your MY NETWORK PLACES in XP or simply just network in Vista/Windows 7. You will see a list of all computers and their names. Double click on the computer you want and you will see its shared folders you set up.
 
I got it

I just needed to right click and run the network wizard. Very cool thanks for all your help!

Now I just need to set securities.

By the way both PCs are wireless too.:D
