USB to USB Networking Cable?

Very nice thanks. What kind of drivers does it setup? What protocol does it use? How are files shared?
No special drivers, but no network protocols either, as USB is strictly single HOST-TARGET. Special software is required. Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Easy_Transfer_Cable
Currently, there are only a few software products which are designed for this cable. They include:

Windows Easy Transfer, by Microsoft[1]
Easy Computer Sync, by Bravura Software[2]
Also check: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_cable_connection
Therefore, Direct Cable Connection over USB is not possible; a USB link cable must be used, as seen in the Microsoft knowledge base article 814982. However, with a USB link cable, a program which supports data transfer using that cable must be used.
