    Hi all,

    Just wondering if anyone has tried logmein (at http://www.logmein.com. Was mentioned on a BBC News Article today (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/programmes/click_online/6161813.stm) and I checked it out. Anyone had good/bad experiences with it? Is it safe and secure?

    I occasionally use it. It's quite an effective solution is you haven't got the need / funds for an enterprise level VPN solution its good.

    Only ever used the free version though. 8)

    hi there ,
    iv often used logmein....
    i think its great, so long as you take all the usual precautions
    you will have no trouble...
    i was having probs with remote desktop for my two pcs at home,
    one machine XP PRO & the other HOME, so i decided just to use logmein out of lazyness!!
    ive been using it for nearly 3 months and not had a problem
    hope this helps m8,
    all the best

    Thanks for the replies. Yes I had the same setup, Home and Prof and couldn't get remote desktop to work :D

    I've got firewall, Router NAT and all the usual stuff, plus long winding passwords so should be okay :D

    I just installed it on all my machines here and on the computers at our church for remote access. So far so good.
