Re: GoToMyPC

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

Someone recently turned me on to logmein.com and I tried it with my home
computer, seemed to work but I didn't really do much with it yet. My
understanding is that the advantage of logmein over gotomypc is that logmein
connects to their server so you don't need to know your home IP address,
which is benificial if your ISP uses dynamic IP addresses as mine does.
I've never used gotomypc so it may vary well work the same way, I don't
know. But logmein does have a free option, which is the one I used.

Just something else to think about,
