    There is some info on their website (www.webex.com). It is a nice tool for
    online demonstrations/conferences and some vendors are now using it to
    support installed software.
    The product also allows for applications to be shared, or the entire pc.

    I suggest considering how the software can be used and the impact on your
    security and privacy policies.
