Q. I am looking for a method to connect to another computer remotely over a broadband connection for my consulting business so I can diagnose & correct problems without needing to be on-site. I have a few requirements:
1.) The method must be secure.
It can be secure either by a form of password, encryption, or by having the user remove the software from their computer when not in use.
2.) Interactivity.
I need to have full (temporary) admin rights to their computer or as close as to this as I can. It would be helpful if the user and I each had separate cursors we could use to make changes to the system, or we could take turns using the same cursor.
3.) Free or low cost licensing.
I would prefer free methods, but if I do need to purchase software to do this, I would look at licensing plans.
Please provide links to the software and/or methods of doing this. I would need Windows 2K, XP, and Media Center OS compatibilities.

A. Simple answer to a simple question. You can use realVNC, UltraVNC, PCAnywhere, Remotely Anywhere, or LogMeIn.
UltraVNC and reaVNC are free., PCAnywhere and RemotelyAnywhere cost money. Logmein is free if you get the basic but if you want to be abe to transfer files and all that then you need to pay for it. Now, I recommend Remotely Anywhere. I use it all the time. You can share files, make system changes, and just about anything you want.
Good Luck

Access software when away from the network?
Q. I have a laptop with Windows 2k that is always on running TrendMicro OfficeScan (virus scan thing). All of the computers in the network are using this as well (the laptop is acting as the software server). How can I set up the laptop so I can get the latest OfficeScan updates even when I'm at a different location with another computer? All I'm asking is how would you set up something that can have a public IP address or something?
A. By Remote Desktop, however to do it safly use VPN client as Hamachi.

"Remote Desktop" is part of windows (not sure W2k has it,...)

Can you share media to your Xbox360 with Windows 2k?
Q. I share my media from my PC (Windows XP MCE) with WMP11 to my Xbox. Music, Videos and photos. But I need to share with a PC that can only run windows 2k. Is it possible? I think WMP11 is only for XP, Vista & 7.. So is there some way of watching the video I have on my PC, on my Xbox while using Windows 2k on the PC?..
A. No.
How can i safely remove a secondary OS?
Q. I installed Windows XP as a secondary OS and i don't want it anymore. My main OS is windows 2000, I have 2 hd's. The first HD is home to windows 2k while the second is home to XP. How can i safely remove it? Thanks.
A. Just format the entire windows xp hard drive hdd. Then, you can edit boot.ini file on your win 2k c:\ root drive (it's a hidden system protected file, so you must enable display of hidden files) and remove the win xp entry line, keeping only the win 2k line.
