TeamViewer Needs more Testing.

Remote Access isn't something you just want to jump into because it's easy.

You need to know how the connection is made and how it is secured.

Having a session controlled by a server makes the weak link the server.
As I posted in CNet Reviews during my 3rd test I watched as two outside connections entered into the same TeamViewer Session on the same Ports.

Now the question is have you setup a firewall that will block TeamViewer?
If not you should then you can allow the connection for the duration of the remote call and close out the session blocking the TeamViewer application.

Read More and if you would like to test with me I'll setup the same systems and let you be the judge.
