I can also recomend another remote software.This is just a pure trial.It is called remote administrator: http://www.radmin.com/ This is some of the best remote softwares that i have tested.

As far as i know you need physical contact with the remote computer to edit the firewall settings.I know adawars and spywares are som crappy things, to deal with.

Yeah, I've tried it.It was actually very funny pranking my victims;)It works as long as the remote computer doesn't have a firewall thingy.Which is blocking the ports that the prog. is using.But hey, if you run into some problems there is a great supportservice at the forum.Do you mean the ads on the website or in the prog. beacuse there is no ads that comes with the prog. which is great. No spyware.It might not be perfect, but if you use it right you'll get your results.

Just wanted to tip you about a great prog. that i found, surfing the "big world". It is called ErrMess Remote Computer and you can find it here: http://www.errmess.com/ It has some of the following features: filetransfer, chat, desktop viewing etc. It is no trial it's freeware.
