Hi,
I've heard good things about UltraVNC from
http://ultravnc.sourceforge.net/
I have Log Me In
https://secure.logmein.com/ in Favorites but don't remember

The newsgroup for Remote Desktop appears to be
microsoft.public.windowsxp.work_remotely
news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsof....work_remotely
Hope this helps,
