Haven’t had a chance to try this, but TeamViewer, free for non-commercial use, offers desktop sharing for both Windows and Mac. They claim 10 million users – wonder if they were known as something else before?

Hi Paul,
In case you are interested in finding the right desktop sharing tool for you, I think you might like Mikogo (http://www.mikogo.com).
With Mikogo, users can host smooth-running screen sharing sessions and invite up to 10 participants simultaneously to any one Mikogo meeting. Switch presenter, remote control, file transfer, etc. are just a few features. The Mikogo Skype Extra gives you free calls and screen sharing together.
Also, there are no configurations or network/firewall changes, so it’s very easy and fast to use. Secure 256 AES end-to-end encryption.
Take a look at the website when you have a moment or if you want the opinion of another librarian blogger, Patricia Donaghy: http://pdonaghy.blogspot.com/2008/06/screen-sharing-with-mikogo.html
If you have any questions, you are welcome to contact me.

Yeah, TeamViewer isn’t too shabby, all things considered. But security is my primary concern, so I’ve gone with RHUB’s remote support servers. It works well.
