Host your own website from any PC

Purplenova

Purplenova is a "must-have" Internet product that allows you to host files, websites and Web-Services directly from your PC, running MS Windows Win2000, Win2003, Win XP, etc. You do not need any other software except your Windows operating System to be installed on your PC and an Internet connection for installing and using Purplenova.

Purplenova can be used to host all types of files including Word documents, Powerpoints, Spreadsheets, music play-lists, Photo Albums, Webpages, and even Web-Services directly from your PC. People who you choose to provide access to these files can access them through normal Internet Browsers such as Internet Explorer, Firefox, etc. without any plug-ins or additional software.

You are in full control of the hosting, and only the files you explicitly select for hosting are accessible. People DO NOT get access to your PC, nor can they write to or modify your files in any way. The content is served in a SECURE way.

Each hosted file gets a Unique Resource Locator (URL). When the reader enters the URL to access the files, the file-content is accessed from your PC and delivered to the reader"s browser. You can choose to make such transmissions SECURE, in which case the file contents are transmitted encrypted end-to-end, leveraging the SSL protocol. Unless you have explicitly cached your files, your computer needs to be ON when the content is accessed by the reader.

In short, Purplenova is a cool way to SECURELY deliver content end-to-end without any risk to your computer!
