Perhaps someone more technically competent could advise on this?
As far as I do know Splashtop is only working on a home network. If you want to use via the internet from a distant location you will have to register and pay for the service. The use of Splashtop is allways with a username and password protected.
Any suggestion about the safity of it's usage is very wellcome ofcourse. ChM
