Looking for a Remote Access Program

Hello All,

I am looking for a decent Remote Access program for Windows XP. I am willing to pay for a program and I have looked at PCAnywhere but at $200 that is a bit much. I have also looked at RealVNC.

I need the software to be easy to use as I plan to send it to my grandfather. He is always after me to help him fix his PC and I want to be able to at least see his Desktop. Taking control of his PC would be a nice feature.

Thanks, Bill

Remote Desktop, included in XP for free.

Or use LiveMessenger (from MS, their chat applet) which has similar screensharing capability.
