Hello I'm trying to figure out step by step on how to connect to a PC from a PC,
my Dad would like me to help him on some stuff and he lives in Georgia and I'm in Minnesota
so I thought it would be cool to learn how to do this to make it easier on how to tell my
dad on how to do something, cause it's very hard to do on the phone when he doesn't know
that the right click and left click of the mouse can do different things.

Any help would be very appreciated on this.

this is a great site. you will have to create an account, then send your dad an installation link. once the software is installed, you will be able to connect and use his pc flawlessly. create an account for LogMeIn IT Reach. first month is free! $12.95 /month. the trickiest part is walking your dad through the software installation.

There's free versions for windows. I think it's what most linux geeks use, although sometimes they're all like 'I just use a remote x session over ssl' and then I'm all like 'I just use your mom for sex' and they walk away mad

remote access lets you enter his pc and do as you wish as long as he gives the ok ,its in your windows installation

I don't think you get that from XP Home though

Thanks All I'll have to check it out and try to figure it out.

I am going to have to agree with logmein.com. All you need is the free version. Your dad installs a client on his PC and you connect to it over a web interface. Go create an account and test on your own machine first.. It really works great. The free version is perfect!

I agree with Weed and PapaSmurf. Smurf showed this to me a while back and it worked well. Give it a go and see what happens.

Sounds good I will check it out and I will see which one I
can figure out faster and simple to use.
