Need to use my laptop to get access (ie: control) to another laptop over the Internet.

Hello,

I dunno if my topic title is sufficient, but I'm sure this can be done. I'd just like to get your opinion on what is the easiest way of doing so. I'm leaving the country and will be traveling for quite some time. I've got a couple friends who I help out on their computers and they will be hopeless without me. So I need something (or process) that will allow me to control their laptops while I'm away.

They both have XP machines, while I have a Macbook (though I have bootcamp so essentially I also have XP).

I'm not looking for anything insane. Simply something that will allow me to use/control their OS environment.

Thanks!
