Re: symantic PC anywhere

well you're not very specific as to what the problem is exactly. try explaining what happens to your computer, pc anywhere is remote desktop software that allows you (or others) to connect to the desktop of your computer over the internet for use... such as helping fix a problem. try rephrasing your question

Re: symantic PC anywhere

Well, firstable I didn't want this on my computor,they just go ahead and put in. But now I've looked into about this program I'm worried. because as I read more into it, they can see my activity on computor or any files without my knowledge.
Is there anyone here who is knowledgable about this program?

Re: symantic PC anywhere

You dont need to know alot about the program its self, its just a remote way of helping you fix a problem over the internet, You sound like you have somthing to hide. Maybe you just be thinking along the lines of reformatting XD, But seriously i don't think theres anything to fear, the man bieng your husbands friend and if you have nothing to hide for instance like illegal things....But personal files should be safe. Simple :)
