Does the BOMGAR work across the internet?  We need to support machines off-=
campus as well as on.

I have been using the free version of logmein, the only problem I have with=
 it is that there is not a client to push to the machine you want to contro=
l, you (as the support tech) must physically install the client prior to su=
pport.  In a previous position we used BOMGAR and although the startup is a=
 bit expensive, it is a powerful tool that allows a client to be pushed to =
the users machine and gives full control easily.

What do people use, like, or hate?   (If you happen to be using LogMeIn, wh=
