Ok....Heres the situation...My brothers Windows ME
computer is infected with a lot of Spyware.. He can't
seem to remove it..

Is there a way for me to access his windows ME computer
with My Windows XP prof.?

What would be the easiest way to do this, with not to
much input on his part...

I need to delete/remove all files and reg. entries
associated with the spyware.

We both have DSL lines..

Help would greatly appreciated...

Not as things stand.

You would need to install 3rd-party software in each PC, such as VNC. See

IMHO I really think your brother is better off disconnecting the PC from the internet and having you
or someone else run antivirus, anti trojan and anti spyware software on the machine versus you
connecting into his PC and possibly becoming infected yourself...
