How to access your computer remotely

by Firdaus Aris on Aug.19, 2009, under Freeware

There are many ways to access your computer remotely.

One of the method which I found is by using VNC.  VNC stands for Virtual Network Computing . It is a software which allows you to view and fully interact with your computer desktop using a simple program (vnc viewer) on another computer desktop anywhere on the internet. The two computer doesn’t have to be of the same type or running the same operation system for them to be able to comunicate, for example you can access a computer running WindowsXP by using a MAC. You can even view and control the remote desktop by using a JAVA enabled browser.

There are various uses of VNC that I can think of ranging from academic uses to computer troubleshooting.

You can get a free version of VNC at the following address  www.realvnc.com
