Remote assistance, assistance....aol related

[GotBonus]

I am looking for a way to access my mother system and diagnose and run some
maintenance programs.
I am on XP pro in AZ on Cable, she is in IL on dialup with AOL.( XP pro as
well.)
Being that she is on aol and has a dynamic IP can remote assistance be used?
Any other suggestions?

Even if she is on DHCP she can go to http://www.whatismyip.com and give you
her address.
