How Does It Work ?

Starting

The Remote Support software is a simple way for you to request support for your PC at anytime. Just click the icon, enter your name and a brief description of the problem and click connect. The request is received by one of our technicians who will then have control of your PC as if he/she where sat in front of it.

Security

The Remote Support session is encrypted with a 128bit key giving you peace of mind that no one other than you and the Remote Support technician has access to your PC and its data.

At any time you can cancel the support session by clicking the cancel button, this will instantly disconnect the technician.

All our Remote Support technicians are security checked and audited to ensure that they can be trusted with your PC and its contents. At your request a full log including screen capture of the session can be emailed to you once the session is finished.

Requirements

The Remote Support software is currently only available for PCs running Microsoft Windows ME, Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows 2003, Windows Vista, Windows 7 and Windows 2008. A future version will support MAC OS X 10.x.
