Remote Desktop Alternative

I recently had a problem with accessing Ogame through the works firewall as some git had decided to block it. I was pointed towards www.logmein.com which works an absolute treat!

When you set up an account you simply install a small client prog on the computers you want to remote control and then go to www.logmein.com through your browser from any PC and have full screen control over any of your PC's.

So far I've got my 2 home PC's and family members PC's that keep phoning me up for help. Makes any firewall / content filter problem a thing of the past
