Hi, I use Logmein (www.logmein.com). >From my laptop I use a mobile radio link direct to the IP address at work. >From there over my work LAN I use real VNC. I can manipulate any PC as if I were sitting in front of it. Really cool. My laptop could be anywhere in the world that can handle mobile (cellphone)radio links.

It works really well if you can get past the client's gatekeepers. Which is about 1/2 the time. What's the difference between Remote Assistance and Remote Desktop?

I say usually because a good network admin can prevent it but most small networks will allow it right through. So no, hamachi by itself does not allow you to "take control". Remote Desktop or VNC can work over the Hamachi VPN and that allows the remote control. GoToMyPC also allows remote access. It is kind of like Hamachi and VNC rolled into one. My personal preference is Hamachi and Remote Desktop for the best speed, but that only works where the other person does not need to see what is going on since the other end CANNOT see what is going on. Hamachi and VNC is my second choice. I do have a client where THEIR client dictated that they use GoToMyPC and so I do use that as well, but I don't like it. John W.
