Can I transfer files from one computer to another just using an ethernet cable? Both computers have Windows XP.

Yes if it's a cross-over cable, and you know how to configure network folder sharing.

PC File Transfer is good for this purpose. Though an internet connection is required. The program can be installed on many computers, files can be easily moved, copied or deleted.

If you don't have, or don't know how to make a crossover cable a router works with a straight thru. Very convenient, especially is you already have a home network.
