Working Remotely

[Tony Miller]

I would like to be able to control my work computer from
home. Is there a way I can use Windows Messenger (with
Windows XP) to do this? There would not be anyone on the
computer at work to accept invitations or accept the
remote control.

Thanks in advance,

Tony

Greetings Tony,

You can't use Windows Messenger to directly do this -- you can however, use Remote Desktop
(assuming your work computer isn't behind a some type of NAT-based corporate solution or a
firewall). For more information on Remote Desktop, click Start, then Help & Support, type
"Remote Desktop" as the search and click the arrow.
