      I was able to serach PDQ Inventory and find some instances of LogmeIn. They are looked to be IT related.

      LogMeIn needs no local install nor admin privileges. How is PDQ searching for them?

        Apparently an agent is installed

            An agent can be optionally installed. I use it both ways. You have to be an admin to install it. So by making people not be admins, you've guaranteed that PDQ will only find it when admins have installed it, not when normal people are using it.

              That makes sense. I never really used Logmein.

                The agent is new too. Just a month old. There no agent option before that except for Ignition.

                  Hold the phone...

                  Scott you could setup your computer at the office with Logmein while logged in as a non admin, then go home and still access it remotely? I've always had to preinstall an agent on the client I want to control before I could do this.

                    Remote controlling out is another story, If I have the client install at home, I can control my home computer from work simply by using the website nothing need be installed on my machine.

                      No. There is no agent for the accessing side. There always has to be a root install to be the server machine.

                        I'm pretty sure that is what IRJ was saying

                          Oh, I thought that he was looking for ways that things were reaching out - finding how people at work were reaching the Internet when they were not supposed to.

                            aww.. we read the question different ways. I read it as sharing their work to outside computers
                            and you read it as
                            reaching out to a computer somewhere on the internet and using that as a jumping point to the internet.

                            OP?
