How to connect to your PC from someone else's PC

Anyone know?

It depends what it is you want to do. Do you want to just be able to access your files, or do you want to be able to take full control of your computer and see your desktop on the other persons PC?

State the operative systems of the PCs in question as well.

I think you'll have to be a lot more specific about what it is you want to do. Connect to someone elses PC in a game? Access files? Use it as a proxy server? There are a lot of ways to take what you're asking.

So are you wanting to connect over the internet, or over a home network? Do you live with them?

nah it would be over the internet - its about 30 miles or so if that matters. They use satelite and i use cable.
