UltraVnc works well and it has a encryption plugin. You can get it at sourceforge http://ultravnc.sourceforge.net/

macko72, microsoft's remote desktop will only let you connect to a xp pro machine, sjm1027 wants to connect to one running xp home.

You can install the CLIENT on Windows 98. The only desktop Windows version at present that supports the RDC server (that is, the only one that you can access using RDC) is XP Pro.

I would recommend TightVNC:
