[dba-Tech] Free alternative for LogMeIn Rescue?

Hi Helmuth

Thanks, I'll have a look.
Should mention that the "Remote Support" of Windows XP and Vista seems to work but is rather slow and does require more user intervention. But the price is right.

For occasional and ad hoc use I use

Very reliable, easy to use, no firewall problems and free for personal use.
Well, the user has to download the client and give you the user-ID and
password.

Hi all

This product for remote support (the user calls the support) is somewhat
expensive for ad hoc use:

Any proven alternatives? Must be able to get through firewalls.
