>>>I'm running out of options. All I want to do is have control of my desktop PC from my laptop via my network. I keep getting "account restrictions" even though I've done everything I think I was supposed to using MMC. This seems like such a pain, but maybe that's the point; anyone bad trying to get in simply gives up. Is that the newest Windows security level? Any help appreciated... Thanks!

I like pcAnywhere - but it's not free either. Depending upon what I'm doing - I use Terminal Services, VNC or pcAnwywhere - all 3 also work on my pda/cell phone...hehe
