You certainly can do file sharing over the internet - saying 'NetBIOS'
is routable is a bit misleading though...  It's the underlying protocol
that determines its ability to be routed...

NetBEUI is non-routable. NetBIOS is routable. NetBIOS over TCP/IP should

supposedly work over the Internet. For example, can't you do file
sharing 
over the Internet? That uses NetBIOS and SMB of CIFS.

(I'm a Mac person, but in theory it should work. ;-)
