LogMeIn

Logmein is an application that allows you to access and control any computer from anywhere. It gives you full control of the computer accessed. It supports PDAs and laptops, and you only need those computers to be connected to the Internet.

LogMeIn is totally safe. It uses SSL protocol (Secure Sockets Layer), which encrypts data when sent throughout the internet. Furthermore, you need two passwords: LogMeIn password and the computer's password.

LogMeIn offers you an easy-to-use and intuitive interface that lets you set up some options related to remote control, security or net configuration.

The free version offers many features, but file transfer or remote printing are only included in the PRO version.
