I am looking for an application that allows you send files/links/images via SMS from your PC.

On one of my old XP workstations,  when I right clicked on something, there was an option in the menu to send via SMS. I don't know the name of the program that did that and I am looking for it. Does any one know what I am talking about and where I can find that program or something similar.

To send a file or image via SMS will be a problem. SMS = short message service sends txt only. To be exact 160 7-bit characters.
I know about an Outlook implementation in Office 2007 and 2010, which enables outlook to send SMS via a SMS provider. But anyway, SMS secifications don't allow any files.

So what you're looking for must be something different, "send via MMS" maybe?

Technically, you're right, thanks for defining SMS to me....

but I guess I just meant , a message to a cell phone...

Yeah, mms ,sms, it was just a feature that allowed me to send files/text to phones.
Sorry, but if you write that you want to send pics via SMS, I think you need a definition for SMS ;-)

I tried to find something like sending MMS via pc, but unfortunately I was unlucky yet...

Each provider has a service for that, I've yet to find something that handles all providers
For example Att does it with an email

Did you means sent some file/pictures/links and so on to "your" mobile phone(not through your phone to another guy's phone)?
Some PC/laptop with Bluetooth supported, and the WIDCOMM Bluetooth Software provider the function let us tranfer a file to our mobile phone like "SMS".
e.g. My laptop support bluetooth tech, and the WIDCOMM driver add an menu item to my [Explorer] context menu, [send to] , [bluetooth], [my mobile phone].
When I sent a file to my mobile phone, my Nokia phone will create a "Message" for me.

On the right click menu (after clicking on file or link) an option "Send to phone.." or "Send as sms/mms" would appear.
