    Boinctasks sounds intriguing. I'm going to have to check that out.

    Ditto on the TeamViewer suggestion. Another, albeit more complicated, solution is to use OpenVPN over TCP port 80. You would then have full access to your LAN remotely.

    Guess TeamViewer is getting a lot of votes. May have to check that one out. For non-private uses I've relied on RAdmin with great success for over a decade. I call it the most cost effective piece of software I've ever bought at a company level.

    As of the end of this month, LogMeIn will no longer be free. Prices will start at $49 for two computers. I guess it is time to switch back to Team Viewer.

    I can't understand how to use Team Viewer minimized as LogMein. I also tried Google Chrome desktop remote control and I managed to add two machines (Win 7 ones) but failed for one machine with Windows 8.

    I still use UltraVNC (Link) as it will always be free.

    I need a solution until LogMein turns off the service. Tomorrow I will try this one out. Thank you.
