looking for a remote desktop program

[Tsaico]

I vaguely remember a program that ran on 95,nt, and 2k that allowed to you to remotely control another PC on a network lan. Similar to PCanywhere, but available for free. I think it started with an "A" Can anyone help me?

Not sure but I use WinVNC.

is there a vnc-type program that allows people to watch what you're doing remotely?

tightvnc can do that, just disable remote keyboard/mouse

That is what I was looking for, boy was I off about the letter it stated with! Thanks guys...

I like UltraVNC. It uses a new Windows Video driver hook and uses TightVNC's compression. You can also get plug ins for it to allow for encryption.

ok, how about remotely connecting to my home machine (where I can have the vnc-or-whatever server software running on it), being able to access it from work, where I'm behind a firewall. Does it allow for web-browser-based access (or, maybe what i'm asking is, will it use port 80, which I know isn't blocked by the firewall at work?

Desktop On Call allows web browser control so no client software is required. It also allows you to specify the port to use.

Remote Desktop anyone? It's part of XP, after all. I use it almost every day.
