Answer 1

If your using XP you should go to the computer you want to connect to and right select "My Computer" then properties.  Select remote then select the box stating " Allow users to connect remotely to this computer".  Apply and ok is next.  Then from programs on the computer that you use to connect to you should select start, programs, accessories and remote desktop connection.  You will be asked for the computer name that you will connect to and the password.  The connect to computer should have a password for this to work.
