I found a site, http://www.radmin.com/ remote access to the computer. But one thing that bothers me is people who are able to hack into your account and get access to my computer. Does anyone know what security features have this program?

You're right of course, Bruce, to say that the safe remote access tools can be good or dangerous, depending on how they are used. My point was that while Radmin is secure in the sense that it uses encryption and a password, it is different from most other remote-access tools in that it is available as a component for integration into other programmes. As such, it is malware writers, and users may well be suspicious of it being found on anything that isn't primarily a remote-support tool.

"Radmin works in encrypted mode where all data, screen images, mouse movements and keyboard signals are encrypted using 256-Bit AES strong encryption with randomly generated keys for each connection to remote computer. For user authentication Radmin can use either Windows security with Active Directory and Kerberos support, or its own security with individual user permissions and secure login/password authentications. Radmin security uses Diffie-Hellman based key exchange with 2048-bit key size. Additional IP filters restrict access to specific hosts and networks." - found on the
