UltraVNC

[stevebossen]

UltraVNC is a powerful, easy to use and free software that can display the screen of another computer (via internet or network) on your own screen. The program allows you to use your mouse and keyboard to control the other PC remotely. It means that you can work on a remote computer, as if you were sitting in front of it, right from your current location. If you provide computer support, you can quickly access your customer's computers from anywhere in the world and resolve helpdesk issues remotely! With addons like SingleClick your customers don't even have to pre-install software or execute complex procedures to get remote helpdesk support.

Any comments about security using UltraVNC? How does it stack up compared to others out there. I would hate to be working on a clients problem miles away using something that could leave the clients data vulnerable.

And as I said in that same post...

"Yes, I currently use UltraVNC SC too with the encryption plugin. I like it a lot, one because there is no messing with firewalls which is a pain to explain to a customer, second its a quick download for the customer, and third you can edit the GUI to make it look more professional. Only problem I have with it is I always find it to be a bit laggy when dealing with Vista box's."
