Remote desktop in Vista

[DarkManX4lf]

Is it possible to connect to my Vista pc from a XP pc remotely through IE7?

for that you use remote desktop connection client

"The Remote Desktop Connection software is pre-installed with Windows XP. To run it, click Start, click All Programs, click Accessories, click Communications, and then click Remote Desktop Connection."

There is no "Add or Remove Programs" control panel in the "Control Panel" in Vista. It's done from "My Computer" screen, at the top, as "Uninstall or change a program", and then going to "Turn Windows features on or off" on the left-side menu.

The OP should know that Remote Desktop or IIS won't be available in Vista Home Basic or Vista Home Premium.
