System Requirements? (#11527)
There is always the question of: Can this program run on my system?

Answer: YES!

All of these programs use very very little amounts of processor power and memory. As long as you have a broadband connection you should have no problem running the apps mentioned in this FAQ.

What are the benefits? (#11533)
The benefits of using a SSH server with your choice of remote deskop viewers enables all of your communications, including passwords, to be encrypted. Which means you can view a secure online account at home from work through the viewer without people sniffing your packets to get your password or other information.
