TightVNC

  • Freeware GNU/GPL
  • Windows XP + Linux Support

TightVNC is a free remote control software package derived from the popular VNC software. With TightVNC, you can see the desktop of a remote machine and control it with your local mouse and keyboard, just like you would do it sitting in the front of that computer. TightVNC is:

RealVNC

UltraVNC

  • Freeware GNU/GPL

UltraVNC is a powerful, easy to use and free software that can display the screen of another computer (via internet or network) on your own screen. UltraVNC runs under Windows operating systems (95, 98, Me, NT4, 2000, XP, 2003...). Its embedded Java Viewer allows you to connect (and make File transfers) from a simple Web Browser on any Operating system supporting Java (Linux, Mac OS...) to an UltraVNC server.

SingleClick Addon for UltraVNC

If you have a router that does NAT (Network Address Translation) and your UltraVNC viewer and server are on different sides of the router, you won't be able to establish an UltraVNC connection without some additional configuration. UltraVNC SC (SingleClick) is a customizable mini UltraVNC server for download. This is very convenient for help desk support because the customer doesn't need any preinstalled remote control software. Just have him or her download UltraVNC SC and start remote controlling. At the end of the remote control session UltraVNC SC deinstalls itself and leaves the computer without additional software.
