    Windows XP question

    If you have Windows XP (and I bet everybody but Adam does ), you probably know about Remote Desktop Connection. It looks like it can only be used on a LAN; can I type in somebody's IP and view their screen (yes, with their permission )?

    Both me and the person I want to connect to are behind routers with firewalls and NAT addressing. Hopefully the NAT addressing won't be a problem. I can always open a port in my firewall.

    So can you use Desktop Sharing? Because I know that I can do it with anybody in the world.

    It probably is, but at least I've got this and MS dumbed it down for me.

    I just read the help () and apparently you can type an IP.
