How is PCNow different from a VPN (Virtual Private Network)?
• VPNs need special software (sometimes hardware) or complicated network settings to function properly. This is usually done by or administered by a network administrator, and we all know how busy those guys tend to get! • VPNs are typically not firewall friendly. PCNow does not require any special firewall settings (outside of typical) to function properly. • VPN is merely a “tunnel” into another network, but does not facilitate the actual controlling of another distinct computer. PCNow has it all built in.
