    I'm looking to control my desktop (in my house) from my laptop. My desktop is on a router. I've tried RealVNC and I can never seem to get it to work. Is there an easier, more simple program for this?

    I use TightVNC. Very easy to set up and works well. http://www.tightvnc.com/ It's also freeware.

    Believing yourself to be secure only takes one cracker to dispel your belief.

    Another vote for RDP (or Remote Desktop Connection). RealVNC should also work if client\server are setup properly (not to difficult to do) but I prefer Remote Desktop Connection.

    Desktop is in the house and the laptop is where? What kind of internet do you have? Static or dynamic IP?

    I use Log Me In. Great program. Easy to use.

    There is a free version and a paid "pro" version as well.

    hxxps://secure.logmein.com/home.asp?lang=en


    Check it out.


    EDIT: I know others from here use it as it was here that it was recommended to me.
