| | Re: Opinions about GoToMyPC service? How about trying Logmein, I have used this for some time and when the trial runs you can use the free version for life.

| | Re: Opinions about GoToMyPC service? Seconded. Logmein.com is FREE, and works great. I have my siblings, parents, and children's PC's all set up so when they call and say "my computer's being weird" I can log right in from anywhere and see what's going on. I can access my home PC's from work. things like remote printing only come in the paid version, but if I need something from home I just email it to myself at work, and print it here. It is virtually zero configuration which means you don't have to do anything with firewalls, or port forwarding.

| | Re: Opinions about GoToMyPC service? you control the mouse and keyboard just like you were sitting at that PC, so yes. you can surf the web, download, install, etc. you can not transfer files between your pc and the host using the logmein free service, the response time depends on your connection speed of both computers so there may be a little lag in response time. (usually not bad and definitely workable) "Tuttle" <nospamhere@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:e0zf%235p4IHA.1428@xxxxxx Quote: > When connected to a target PC using Logmein Free, can you make that target > PC download and install software applications? > > > "KDE" <knott_me@xxxxxx> wrote in message > news:Ox2XoMe4IHA.4448@xxxxxx Quote: >> Seconded.
