Skurge told me one but I forgot the name of it. But he was able to log onto his PC, from mine… without downloading any software (all HTTP) on my machine. I believe it was thru internet explorer. anyone know of anything? I’d like access to my PC from here if need be… but dont want to install anykind of software on this machine. ---

RealVNC TightVNC Both Free, RealVNC tends to be a bit better in terms of polish, and both allow you to access you computer through a java enabled browser from any computer which is nice to have. TightVNC is a bit more efficent for low-end machines, but at the same time resfresh times are slower/don’t always work great. I’ve been using TightVNC, because RealVNC was causing issues with one of the apps I run on my server. ---

I would try VNC but I can’t do that from my work to my home. gotomypc works great though. I would say sign up for the free 30 days! :tup::tup: ---
