In a specific embodiment of the invention, a peer-to-peer interfacing device is described. The particular embodiment of the invention facilitates access by a Web browser, allowing a Web user to benefit from the access capability of a peer-to-peer network, such as file sharing. The interfacing device can communicate using a standard protocol (e.g., HTML), thus allowing the Web user to access the peer-to-peer network with a conventional Web browser. The interfacing device can interact on the peer-to-peer network side, and thus appears to the peer-to-peer network as a peer machine.
