    help needed


    hiya, i need to set up a home network that will allow me to install applications on other computers and was wondering what the best way to go about this would be? im pretty much a newb to this so any programs that would be quick and easy to set up would be advantagous.. essentially i'd like have my pc as the Admin to the other pc's in the home network so if theres an app that i could just install the Admin software on mine and Client software on the other computers im tasked with maintaining would really be a great help.. have 2 pc's on win 7 U, 1 vista & 1 Xp..

    Thanks for any help

    Welcome!

    I suggest the free program TeamViewer. Install that on all your machines, and you can log onto them remotely.

    You could also use Windows Live Mesh which accomplishes the same thing as TeamViewer but just goes about it a slightly different way.
