It can be dangerous if you allow it to. I use it at times to get into several other computers in my home office, mainly just movie collections from my mce 2005 in living room. Always keep yourself behind a good firewall type router, hardwire still my choice. and use a good firewall within your OS as well, check your ports and settings...then you should be able to use safely. or I should say within our current technoligy...there is always tomorrow.

remote computing, pc 2 pc desktop access - quick - can be spyware - can be dangerous if you don't know what you're doing as the world can access the computers it's installed on, if they guess the password. Block the ports with a router on local lan and it's safe.

This program gives you remote access to your computer. I highly doubt anyone who knows how to install a remote desktop service would wonder what it is.
