Rather than trying to open up ports on your mum's router, you should consider signing up both you and your mum for free MSN accounts. Then, using MSN instant messenger, she can simply click on your ID, and request desktop assistance. You will then receive a request, and once accepted, you would view her desktop while chatting. At any time, she can let you take control of her desktop, and you may push and pull files between the two of you as well. This is built in, and requires no configuration, or network changes. The speed and response is also much better. > -----Original Message----- > From: B.
