I know there are a few tech geeks here. What's a good free remote access software? I want to control my home PC from work. I used to use LogMeIn but they got rid of the free version and I don't use it enough to justify paying for it.

Anybody heard anything about TeamViewer?

Thanks.

TeamViewer is what I switched to once LogMeIn went $$$.

It works great from overseas. I've used it from Amistad, several MDE hotels and from DR to control my PC.

+1 ... sort of.

I did the same, but Teamviewer isn't as stable or fast as Logmein. It can also act wierd on the host machine if it is not accessed in long stretches. Make sure you keep it updated as well.
