SnakeMasteR Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 I guess (since i made a easy question) the answer is difficult because this is not a hacking forum, i can't see any reason why someone would use internet access of a computer you are connected to via FTP, i mean FTP, really? :wtf: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that so?Help yourself to a bit: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/connect-using-remote-desktop-connection#connect-using-remote-desktop-connection=windows-7http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/connect-using-remote-desktop-connection#connect-using-remote-desktop-connection=windows-vista Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike.mt Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 I agree with the above replies.But why browse the net through a remote pc, when you already have an internet connection?? Unless you wish to hide your ip address from web sites you are visiting.If this is the case you may wish to consider using a more efficient solution such as SafeIP or one of the many other free or paid proxy / vpn alternatives.Also worth bearing in mind, is that when web browsing / downloading files through a remote system you are limited to the upload bandwidth of the remote connection.
