What software to you guys recommend to vnc into my Home computer from work?

Ultravnc
Logmein

Whats wrong with MS's remote management? I assume you already have your router configured, a static IP address or a dynmaic dns address. I personally just use the Remote Desktop Connection that comes with Windows.

Internet's still coming - SAOL uncapped, I just need to login and check downloads every so often when I'm finally up and running.

I personally use realvnc.

App called Live mesh (Microsoft)

Dont need static ip or dynamic dns

Just install on both PC and log in with MSN credentials..

Also included is 5gb of online storage and you can copy and paste from one desktop to another

My experience is that the built in windows remote desktop is faster than uvnc. If possible use that first.

The only downside I can think of using windows remote desktop over vnc is that it will lock the screen when you start controlling it - not such a biggie.

This is the best solution for you. It does not require a static IP and it can be set up to run on the home pc permanently. You can access it via the teamviewer web site without having to install on the work PC.

Logmein Free is my suggestion.
