I gave myself half an hour to think this one over, do you mean you want to
teach people how to use their software, from a remote location?
You want a chat - not that hard.
A shared desktop? I guess you want to share theirs, not the other way
around.
+ you want to have access to their system to install files on it?
If you need this kind of access, I guess PC-Anywhere is the easiest. I've
experimented with BO2K which is an opensource equivalent, it has a lot of
power, and would enable you to include these functions inside another app.

The collaborative  browsing part can be done, as you have a chat, you'll be
polling the server often, so the server could simply send back a command to
load a new url in a frame. Getting a fake mouse-cursor moving over this
frame, while you explain to the user what specific parts of the site do, is
also possible.(at least if you use an I-frame in a v5+ browser).

I might of course have completely misunderstood the question :o)
