Hi,

A friend would like to see me work on some files, to see how to do it etc... so we decided to use Remote Assistance via MSN Messenger, but it fails.
I was asking for Remote Assistance, so they could see me work

I am running XP Home SP2 with a software firewall and a Linksys Router, I am not sure if I need to set anything up on the router.
The other person is using Vista Ultimate
We have tried Remote Assistance both ways but it fails.

Could someone tell me how to set it up ?
Also is there any other way to use Remote Assistance without MSN Messenger ?
