I haven't used laplink since the early days of Win3.x so my recollections
may be fuzzy.  I'm not even sure that it is still available.  It is/was a
commercial product that was packaged with software for both the sender and
receiver plus the special cable all in one box.

You could install the software on one machine only and then send the
required part "through the cable" and have it automagically installed on
the second PC. (or that may have been a brand X version <g>)  At the end
of the session, the software was left installed on both machines.
I ***think*** that the PC had to be rebooted also. (but that's in the
fuzzy remembory section)
