Using Windows only you can control Win98 with the WinXP computer using Remote Desktop (RDT), you need to download and install the Win98 DDT Client on the Win98 computer. Windows 98 cannot control Win XP with RDT.

Otherwise, I use Ultr@VNC (free program). Its provides: Remote Control, File Transfer, and Chat between LAN computers or over the Internet. It takes only few minutes to set it.

Most of the time, for security purpose, and to avoid System's load on resources, I want the remote application out of the picture once the session is terminated. Ultra@VNC one closed is out of the system with no functional traces.
