Hamachi 2.1.0.158-Create a safe private network between two computers

*Hamachi* is a handy tool lets you connect two computers via the internet by
creating your own *virtual private network (VPN)* and protecting it with
industry-standard *encryption algorithms*. This means that your
communications will be safe from prying eyes at all times, creating a private
channel between both computers. Of course, Hamachi can also be used in local
area networks (LAN) for extra safety. Hamachi features a simple interface
that enables you to create personal safe networks in just a couple of steps.
At first sight, it all looks very easy to use. Plus your connection is
conveniently protected by an AES-256 algorithm. Complications arise later on
when trying to share files between computers: you'll have to do it through
network sharing on Windows because it's not a feature Hamachi itself
supports. In the end, I have to admit we were unable to share files over
Hamachi during our tests – you know how stubborn Windows folder sharing
configuration can get. Oh well, at least we could have a chat – a very safe
one, of course. *Hamachi is a great solution to establish safe, private P2P
connections between two computers; unfortunately it's not as easy to use as
it seems at first sight.*Download *Hamachi 2.1.0.158* in Softonic
