File transfer between computers via USB

I would like to transfer files (MS Word, jpeg etc) between computers. Mine is an Inspiron E1405 running XP SP2 and all, so is the other one, an HP desktop. I want to avoid using an intermediate media such as an external HD, CDs or Flash Drives. There must be a way to connect the two via their respective USB ports. Any ideas, anyone? Obviously, for small files a flash drive is a no-brainer. I want to transfer some 50GB of images--or other things.

    I have never transferred files using a USB port, but I googled and several sites said you need a specially constructed USB cable and software.  The one linked below has the software built into the special purpose USB cable for about $15.00.
