The things I do include...
* Run Remote Desktop through a VPN or Secure Shell (SSH) tunnel. Personally
I use OpenVPN and a certificate and strong password for authentication. I
have done the same thing with Secure Shell (SSH) and a private/public key
pair protected by a strong password.

* A strong password
* Configure the group policy to always ask for a password and use only
"High" encryption.

I have implemented remote desktop on my pc (XP Pro) and can now access my
pc
away from the office. I have also changed the port for accessing my pc.
My question is this - How do I improve security when i connect through
remote desktop?
