Hi all.
Is there an application, preferably free (hah, do I even need to stipulate that??) that lets me get at my info on my other computer without having someone else be on the other end. It's turned on every day, so that's not a problem.

Thanks you Brainiacs, I love ya.

Having grandkids is God's way of giving you a 2nd chance because you were too busy working your butt off the 1st time around

Teamviewer is brilliant.

I use it to connect to my Father's computer, out in the wilds:

(installed the full package on both computers - really easy setup - defined passwords, so you can obtain remote access
to your heart's content).
