    I've never used one of these programs before but tried www.logmein.com this morning and its great.

    Took 5 minutes and I can access all the programs and files from my home PC through a web browser.

    The best thing is its free.;)

    I heard about that one on the radio. If you use the promo code smooth you get something free or .. I dunno, but smooth is a promo code.

    had heard of them before but never used it - was not sure about the security - how fast is it in accessing the remote pc files, mad4?

    Its about half the speed of normal ftp uploads. Still OK though.

    You install a program on your home PC and provide login details and a password. To log in you need your account name and password.

    They offer reports of all the sessions as well.

    Don't ask me if its secure or not.:)

    thats the problem installing it on my PC, i am already facing a lot of probs due to new sort of spyware. you can understand that now a days security is becoming a big issue.


    other prob is if its FREE... the suspect comes in..wether it is safe or not.

    They do professional version. Pay for that if it makes you feel better.
