remote desktop

Recommended Posts

A friend wants to do some work on a PC in an office in another part of town (running an accounting program, etc).

I used PCAnywhere for DOS long, long ago for this, so I want something of similar functionality for Windows that runs over the internet.

I've found this Wiki page on "Comparison_of_remote_desktop_software" which looks useful, but I wonder if anyone can give recommendations. It should be:

Free

Easy to install

Reasonably secure

Runs on Win XP, or 2k, and would be nice if also on Mac OSX.

Thanks...

You could also try Mesh from MS Live http://www.mesh.com it gives you 5gb free of storage to store files to sync back and forth between different PCs AND it also has a built it remote desktop tool. It will let you connect to any of the machines on your Mesh network.

PS. Its all free
