Hi Group. I have Win XP Pro, 1.2 Gig Processor, 512 Meg Ram, 40 Gig Hard Drive partitioned in 3 equal partitions, I live in Florida, I want to set up to allow my son in Indianapolis to be able to access my computer and help me with problems when needed. I have NS Anti Virus Beta, Zone Alarm, I Click Maintenance, As-Subtract, Ad-Aware, AVG, Spyware Search and Destroy, Spyware Blaster all disabled. I have all the latest Windows updates including SP2. Windows built in Firewall is disabled. When I go to Help Support and click on ask for assistance, then click on Ask a friend to connect to my computer for remote assistance I get a dialog box stating that my systems setting DO NOT allow me to do this. Everything is either turned of or disabled. Where else can I check. HELPPPPPP?
