What is the easiest way to setup a remote access connection so that I
can setup a meeting and have someone on the other end click on a link
so that I may control their pc without them downloading anything? I
have thought about using VNC and partitioning my hard drive and
installing ms server on it. If that's the answer, how do i set it up?

There is no answer at this time.

Hi,

RealVNC allows you to control a remote PC, but this needs to be
installed on the computer you want to control. On the controlling PC
you just need a Java enabled web browser.

Failing that, Windows Netmeeting has a remote desktop sharing tool.

Is this the kind of thing you're looking for?

Thanks.

I'm sorry, but that is not the answer I'm looking for. I already
mentioned VNC in my question. I'd like to to able to control another
person's pc without them having to install a single thing. ie.
clicking on a link and being connected.

Hi,

Have you tried Microsoft Netmeeting? It is already installed with most
versions of Windows. You would just need the IP address of the remote
computer and ask them to host a call for you, then you can request to
share their desktop. It's about 3 clicks in total.

Thanks.

I know I'm being a pain. Maybe I was asking too much for the 10
dollars. I have done all the research I think I can, I need an
expert's help at this point. My question with a little more
clarification is, "How do I setup remote access to another person's pc
with that person having to only click on one link?"
