Remote control PC from Mac

Any recommendations on Remote Desktop / VNC style remote control apps for a Mac? Looking specifically to control a Windows PC over the internet so decent security and low bandwidth requirements would be nice.

LogMeIn has always worked well for me.

Teamviewer covers Macs and Windows PCs.

I use Teamviewer love it.

I use the free version of Logmein to go Mac -> PC (and the other possible combinations)

Don't have any issues with it (although the pay iPad app really means you need pointy fingers)

Teamviewer ?

I use it all the time on PC's and there is a MAC version.

I use teamviewer for over the internet... its seems to be the fav for all techs/tech companies at the moment that don't have RDP setup or the correct permissions.

Splashtop is the best I've used - its fast enough to play video over the web from the host PC!

Their website is terrible though - you have to really dig around to find the right downloads!

Another vote for Teamviewer. Simple setup and works as advertised with minimal fuss.
