[quote]And also, I have heard that once a hacker has gotten into a remote comp, that they can see everything that the user is doing. Is that true? And if so, in what form do they see it? Does it all come in text form, or is it a program that replicates the movements of the user on the remote comp in a GUI type style as if the hacker was looking ofer the shoulder of the remote user?[quote]

Like Terr said before me:
- It's all about the network connection, if it's WAN / internet remote a GUI tool would not be a good choice...
- It depends on OS
I had some cool tool for DOS, you could actually see what the other was typing, it echoed all actions...very cool...but useless these days.
