    Got2MyPC is popular and well established.
    Dont forget that if they are running XP or above there is the "Request Remote Assistance" feature too already built in.

    Re: PC remote control

    Thanks, I don't want to pay a monthy fee.
    Maybe I am not explaning this very well.

    One calls support, they give you a link, you click or sign-in, they now see your desktop. I understand PcAnyWhere, GoToMyPC and programs like these.

    Any other thoughts?
    Thanks

    Shouldnt it be reversed? They call and you get to log in to their computer so you can fix it?
