Hello to all forum visitors, this is my first post and i want to ask:

1. How can i add my custom menu in the windows file right click menu (like "Enqueue in Winamp" or "Extract Here" and etc...)
2. What component, method to use for file transfer, QTcpSocket ?

Thanks to all

Qt is not really suited for that. You have to use platform dependent API there.

1. Presumably you will want to create an installer for your application, which takes care of that. See NSIS (http://nsis.sourceforge.net/File_Association) for example.
2. QTcpSocket works fine. See also QFtp and QHttp.
