Yeah I looked into that also - very nice. But what this solution affords me is a simple way of keeping folders sync'd up as opposed to being able to access my files from anywhere in the world. The biggest problem I had with FolderShare was using company bandwidth. They would complain when the bandwidth meter would rise when I would VPN in and try and transfer files. The red tape and the explanations were too much to handle so I dropped the whole thing.

Jeff-
All I use Foldershare for is the syncing capability - especially nice for sync'd Bookmarks in IE (the other function being my consulting timesheets and invoices) and for two folders it's free.

For file access it's still PCAnywhere or Remote Desktop. I can't see why they would complain unless you were syncing all your mp3's etc.
I think the main thing to do is not get carried away with too many files/folders - set up a "sync'd My Documents" with just a few files.
