Remote monitoring software for Vista

I have a Vista PC in the living room with a webcam and I was wondering if
anyone knows of good remote monitoring software that I could use to monitor
the room while I am away from home?

Cheers.

Re: Remote monitoring software for Vista

a very simple way is to use live messenger on both computers... and install
the live messenger PLUS!
add-on for live messenger, that has an option to "autoaccept" invitations
for webcam use...
http://www.msgpluslive.net/
you will have 2 different msn accounts on for each computer.. so you will
start a webcam conversation from one computer to the other, the other will
auto accept via the live messenger plus auto accept function and you will be
able to see
the other webcam

and of course messenger is here http://messenger.msn.com

Re: Remote monitoring software for Vista

one more detail on that... you can define live messenger plus! to auto
accept ONLY from
the users you want.. so you will define it to autoaccept ONLY from the
account you will be using on the other side....

I hope you have understood all this.. if not.. I am at your service to help
you out.
