Okay. So, my daughter and I think my husband is trying to spy on our actions on the computer, so do you know how he could be doing that without a spyware thing? My daughter said something about 'remote something' and the only thing I can think of is 'Remot
e Assistance' and I know that's not it. Can someone please tell me what it is and where I can find it in Windows XP? It would be very helpful also if you could E-mail me the answer, I don't check these boards often enough and am very forgetful. My E-mail a
ddress is . Someone please help!

First, do not post your real, unmunged email address in newsgroups or on
messageboards. It will get harvested by spambots and you'll get more
unwanted email. Second, sorry but there is no free email support. This
is a support newsgroup and questions are answered here. Third, of
course there are plenty of programs that enable people to spy on each
other, far too many to detail in this post. Do a Google search for
"computer surveillance" or the like. If you really believe this is
happening, then this is not an operating system (Windows XP) tech
support question but rather something you will need to address with
your husband, counselling, private investigators, or some other Real
Life venue.

Wishing you the very best luck,

What is the message about remote something? It could be an indication that
the system is infected with Blaster.

Well you cant be much of an MVP if you
dont know what remote assitance is lol

Or remote desktop. They're legit ways of
gaining access, for ppl who require help.

Other than phoning.

Sharon was asking what the MESSAGE was about remote, not asking what remote
was.

C'mon, people, let's read a little more carefully before we start
mudslinging.

Your solution is to not do anything your husband wouldn't approve of.
