I think Remote Assisatance uses Windows Messenger Technology, so.. maybe they talk about this.

Yes, you can use MSN Messenger if (only if) Windows Messenger is installed.

Also note that both computers must be set to allow remote assist (start > controlpanel > system > connections).

If that is set and windows messenger is installed you can do a remote assist by going to (for MSN 7): tools > start activity > remotecontrol (in convowindow).

For more info see: Win XP - using Remote Assistance

If you don't have windows XP you will need Remote Desktop Connection Software (for: Windows 95, Windows 98 and 98 Second Edition, Windows Me, Windows NT 4.0, or Windows 2000). When run, this software allows older Windows platforms to remotely connect to a computer running Windows XP Professional with Remote Desktop enabled. Info and download here.
