I want to be able to setup remote file access from my PC to my laptop over the internet. I don't have a clue on how to do this so I have not idea what to search for on Google 
Any hints on how to do this?

If you mean to want to remotely connect to your PC from your laptop then do this:
PC:
My Computer \ System Properties \ Remote
Turn on remote access
Lock your computer.
Laptop:
Start \ Programs \ Accessories \ Communications \ Remote Desktop
Enter PC name and password.

Easiest way I find where you don't need to know your IP, PLUS it bypasses my work firewall, is http://www.logmein.com
Couldn't get any easier.

Real VNC, free and does the job.

after Tim's recommendation, SSL Explorer - allows you to browse your drive(s), run applications (so VNC etc) through a SSL tunnel (port 443), so not only is it secure, it get's around majority of corporate firewalls.
I've been running it a while as my works connections is locked down, so VNC/logmein is a no go. Apart from one dodgy release (was quickly patched within a day or so) i haven't had any problems with SSL Explorer
