Ever had the need to access information on your home (or office) computer but you couldn’t because you were somewhere else? Ever need to help someone trouble shoot a problem but couldn’t see their desktop? I have come across these (and other issues like it) many times throughout my IT career and have finally come across a solution (and it’s free … shhhhh). Log Me In is a remote computer access product that offers many different flavors to fit your needs. There are a few that allow you to help multiple people remotely (these cost money) but they also have a product called Log Me In Free which allows a user to create an account, download software on their computer, then access their computer from anywhere using their account information. It’s as easy as email. All you have to do is remember your log in information and you can access your computer from any computer that has internet access.

You might say “hey I don’t want just anyone having access to my computer”. The good part about Log Me In is that they require you to authenticate (use your password) to your home computer before logging into it. This means that unless you (or a potential intruder) knows the password that is established on your home computer then there is no way for them to access your information. Let me know if you find this information helpful or if you have any other computer issues that need solving.
