Cross OS Remote Access Solutions

[StickClicks5]

I need a Remote Access solution that will allow me to access a client WIndows PC from my Macbook over the internet. Could anyone point me in the right direction?

I need to be able to control the mouse, keyboard, ect.

Thank you very much.

P.S. I think this is the right forum for this. I am looking for OS X compatible software. Sorry if it is not.

There's also the Mac Remote Desktop Connection client

I use it all the time to connect to our terminal servers.


There's also Chicken of the VNC, and VNCDimension (VNC clients)

However CotVNC is painfully slow for me, and vncdimension is sort of buggy.

I hate CotVNC, but that's the only vnc client I knew of, I'm watching this thread.

Wow, thank you everyone for all the suggestions.

I use www.logmein.com because i can't access my home network from the internet thanks to Verizon DSL. best of all it's free, instead of the 25 i was paying to gotomypc! they also have reasonably priced paid plans if you need more features. but anyway. that's what i use, and it works connecting to my vista pc from my mac anywhere i am.
