Andy I see this as a solution where I have a client I need to help online. I'm talking Maw/Paw systems here. An easy to install 'exe' which has transparent authority ie they give permission. I would anticipate being on the phone while they are installing.

Like Dave, I much prefer LogMeIn but that is more like a sledgehammer to crack a nut in this scenario. re 'munge into a pay service eventually' so what. just enjoy it while you can.
