Want to play LAN games over the net? Check out this program. It's small, easy, simple to use & best of all it's free. I've been using it a little more than a week and I love it.

This looks great!!! Does it work with all games/programs?

Yes, it should work with all games. It sets up a new Network Connection called Hamachi which basically bridges your LAN over the Net.

There are 2 versions Free & Premium. The free version is all anyone should need for gaming. You will see a small message now and then when your trial Premium service is going to expire. It's not very 'in your face' like others and you shouldn't be bothered by it. I currently have 3 days left on mine and I'll let you know what happens when it has expired.

Update:

My trial Premium service has expired and Hamachi is still working great under the free service. Me and family had some difficulty with C&C Generals on this Hamachi network but it turned out to be a firewall issue.

You will get a message from Hamachi now and then asking you to buy their Premium service, the icon on the system tray will flash to alert you of this. I have had no troubles with this yet. It's an awesome program.

LAN games that I've tried on Hamachi: Flatout, Starcraft, Rise of Legends, Doom 3, C&C Generals
