Description:
We use an application called "ShowMyPC".  The writers of the software are available at www.showmypc.com.  It is a free for use application that allows 1 computer to remotely control the other. 
The application does not install anything on your computer.  It is a one time use app, so once you close the program, we can no longer remotely control your computer.
