Once you install the software on the client, you can remotely access that computer to solve window&#8217;s related problems.\u00a0 I say window&#8217;s related problems because it runs as a window&#8217;s service on the client machine. If the problem is a boot up problem, then this software will not help. I routinely save travel time as I now don&#8217;t need to drive to the client to find out what the problem is. I simply start up <a href=\"www.logmein.com\" target=\"_blank\">logmein.com<\/a>, remotely bring up the client&#8217;s computer and control the client&#8217;s desktop as if I had the computer right in front of me. I&#8217;ve used it to setup outlook pop accounts, fix driver problems, and disable those pesky browser virus add-ons. They have both a free version and a pay version. The pay version offering the ability to view things like a dashboard of computer health information and the ability to copy\/move files between your computer and the client machine. The free version offers remote control access and that is what i use it for.<\/p>\n<div class=\"thanks_button_div\" \n                  style=\"float: left; margin-right: 10px;\"><div id=\"thanksButtonDiv_53_1\" style=\"background-image:url(http:\/\/tek-files.com\/wp-content\/plugins\/thanks-you-counter-button\/images\/thanks_compact_blue1.png); background-repeat:no-repeat; float: left; display: inline;\"\n                onmouseover=\"javascript:thankYouChangeButtonImage('thanksButtonDiv_53_1', true);\" \n                onmouseout=\"javascript:thankYouChangeButtonImage('thanksButtonDiv_53_1', false);\"\n                onclick=\"javascript:thankYouChangeButtonImage('thanksButtonDiv_53_1', false);\" >\n                <input type=\"button\" onclick=\"thankYouButtonClick(53, 'You left &ldquo;Thanks&rdquo; already for this post')\" value=\"Like 0\"\n                  class=\"thanks_button thanks_compact thanks_blue1\"\n                  style=\"  font-family: Verdana, Arial, Sans-Serif; font-size: 14px; font-weight: normal;; color:#ffffff;\"\n                  id=\"thanksButton_53_1\" title=\"Click to leave &ldquo;Thanks&rdquo; for this post\"\/>\n             <\/div><div id=\"ajax_loader_53_1\" style=\"display:inline;visibility: hidden;\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"ajax loader\" src=\"http:\/\/tek-files.com\/wp-content\/plugins\/thanks-you-counter-button\/images\/ajax-loader.gif\" \/><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One of the most useful tools I&#8217;ve ever come across is LogMeIn.com.
