Good remote access tool

Tom Johnson
All:

From time-to-time I need to help someone trouble-shoot something on their computer, and need to do so remotely.  I have a subscription to LogMeIn, which I like a lot, but thanks to the "Scout Report" I learned of this app, TeamViewer.  It's free; my favorite price.

TeamViewer seems to run a little more slowly than LogMeIn, but the ROI is still favorable. 

TeamViewer 4.1.6320

http://www.teamviewer.com/index.aspx

Various web technologies can help bring people together for business or pleasure, and TeamViewer is just one of the many applications dedicated to this mission. This application allows multiple users to screen-share and also transfer files across machines. The drop-down toolbar helps users easily maximize or minimize the other computer's screen, and the application's server remembers which computers users have connected to as well. This version is compatible with computers running Windows or Max OS X. [KMG]
