I browsed and go ogled for lot of remote access applications which are free, elegant and secure; moreover, ease of use. I found this site very interactive, secure, reliable and innovative.
There is one more site wherein we can login remotely to access our friends computers, of course with their approval and will. It is logmein, however, it is nice but one has to register and start using it.
Logmein uses SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) whereas Showmypc uses SSH (Secure Shell Host) which is 20 times more reliable than the previous one.
Besides, it does not require any username to be created, download a small file of around 1 MB and get on your feet to stay connected to other computers remotely. It takes approximately 8K processes on Windows.
Thumbs up for this nifty tool which is open source, only for open-minded people.
