remote administrator 3 mate
i got it here
works a treat
if your poppin this way bring a dongle or a disc or somthing and ill stick the program on for you
its easy toset up and good fun

google remote administator 3 for a full brief of it all

Loads of good software - Martin Imber who runs XP Pro has Remote Desktop which all works well as well (and is probably the most secure).  However, I guess his company have settled on Netsupport, and thats what is allowed through firewall.

with remote admin you have to allow it pst the firewall
i use it and have no problems
its all secure passwords needed and user names

ive fitted it on a few computers even my dad's
so instead of me having to go back and forth to there house i just log on with remot admin and sort it from my comp

I doubt a company would allow opening of its firewalls for such a tool

As to secure - is it?  Remember the (in)famous 'secure' VNC product that had a security flaw that allowed anyone to bypass the security?  Don't assume a product is secure because they claim it is

Yes we use NSM for remote control - works with VGA graphics (a lot don't) and well we have a big enough licence for it.

My BT Homehub seems to block incoming calls but then I never come onto home PC from office and my wife is well trained enough if there is a problem

NSM is available for lots of formats tempted to install Linux on the PS3 and try the Linux version

you'll need to set up the NAT/port forwarding, as being BT Total Broadband, you won't have RIPE addresses on the devices behind the hub
