Hi guys,

I was looking into a program that will allow me to access my PC at home from another computer via internet.

I just found out through google that I can do this with Windows XP by going through:

Start Menu -> Accessories -> Communications -> Remote Desktop Connection.

Tested it out and it works great! However, even though I can SEE and USE programs, files, etc. I can't seem to transfer the files I need. I'd like to be able to transfer files from Home to my office. Files sizes up to about 40,000KB in size.

Any suggestions on how I can do this?

I used to use PCAnywhere 12 and it was much more stable than Windows Remote Desktop and allowed for transfer of files without limits. It was very easy to setup and didn't bog down my computer like other remote applications.

The latest version of Remote Desktop Connection (a.k.a Terminal Services Client) has these features:

If you're looking for a solution that does not require opening up your firewall you can use PCAnywhere like dizzyduck suggested or logmein.
