Thanks for the reply and I have uninstalled the program

I would still like to know all about the program from an independant source
i.e how it allows access and whether it allows access to all parts of a
computer, I am on windows 98se but I know that windows XP allows other XP
users access to your computer for fault fixing etc. does imesh work in a
similar way.

One of the reasons for wanting to know about the "working " of the program
is so that I can explain to the "culprit" why I do not want such programs on
our family PC.

Cheers Steve
