Controlling computer from distance

[earthsfate]

The main reason why i want to do this is to put some torrents onto my bt client when i am away on vacation or something. Is there a program out there that lets me control my computer remotely? I remember ABC (the bittorrent client) use to have a service to let us do specifically that, it was called "Web interface Service"

Hopefully you will thank me....I just started useing this and man I have to tell you...I am SO in love with it. Its called RealVNC and I have it on all of my computers. Its so costomizable and small. Doesnt use much bandwith or memory.

You've got a number of options.

If your Bit Torrent client has an auto-load function, then all you need is to be able to access your file structure. You could set up an FTP server on your computer and transfer your file into that folder via FTP.

Another option for the above situation would be to use Hamachi. It's a little less of a hassle to set up, but it requires that the computer you're at also has Hamachi installed (while an FTP connection only requires IE).

If you want complete control over your desktop, any VNC solution (as nas8060 suggested) would do you fine. If you're using XP Professional, then Remote Desktop is probably a better solution, since it's a lot faster than VNC.

Hope that helps!
