Atlanta Braves? Cleveland Browns? We&#8217;re sorry to say our freeware pick this  week won&#8217;t help you view those kinds of teams. In fact, our freeware pick of the  week won&#8217;t help you view any teams.<\/p>\n<p>So why is our freeware pick of the week called  &#8220;TeamViewer&#8221;. We don&#8217;t know. Why Google called Google or blue called blue or a  canary called a canary. Why are we here? What is the meaning of life? Why is  Eightball so mean? These are esoteric enigmas that will be with us all  forever.<\/p>\n<p>What you can do with <a href=\"http:\/\/teamviewer.com\/\">TeamViewer<\/a> is not so esoteric though .You can  connect to friend&#8217;s computer and help them solve a problem, chat with them, view  their desktop, use their programs and generally do anything you could do if you  were sitting right there with them. Scary huh? Not so much. Each session  generates a unique ID and password which you must send to your friend. They in  turn will have to send you their user ID and password. Each session generates a  new password and ID so it cannot be used by unwilling friends \ud83d\ude42 or by enemies  who once were friends. It&#8217;s pretty nifty and very easy to use.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: small;\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: small;\"><em><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/thundercloud.net\/infoave\/images\/2011\/teamviewer.png\" border=\"0\" alt=\"Cloudeight InfoAve Premium\" width=\"321\" height=\"437\" \/><\/em><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Since you subscribe to InfoAve or InfoAve Premium,  hopefully you&#8217;ve gained some computer knowledge that you can use to help a  friend who isn&#8217;t as savvy as you. TeamViewer makes it easy for you to help them,  even if they are thousands of miles away. You can virtually access any program  on their computer, make settings changes, send them files, talk over your mic  (or sing to them!) or show them how to do something on their computer as if you  were sitting right there with them. And the nice part is, you don&#8217;t even have to  take a bath or smell good. Heck, you can even sit there in your undies and help  your friend fix a problem or teach them to do something and they&#8217;ll never know  that you look like a slob or that you&#8217;re snickering at their incompetence or  those 7009 icons on their desktop. You can even clear their desktop for them!  Just make sure you show them how to put them back.<\/p>\n<p>Well, enough babbling, you either get the idea by  now or you don&#8217;t. If you don&#8217;t, keep reading because we&#8217;re about to introduce  you to the one and only Billy Shears. I mean the TeamViewer team;<\/p>\n<p>Take it way guys and gals from TeamViewer:<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;&#8230;TeamViewer is the fast, simple and friendly  solution for remote access over the Internet &#8211; all applications in one single,  very affordable module:<\/p>\n<p>Remote access to PCs and servers via Internet  -Instantly take control over a computer anywhere on the Internet, even through  firewalls.

How do they do that? How to the write so much  in so few words? I&#8217;m going to have to go see them and get some tips! Anyway,  there&#8217;s a lot more to TeamViewer than we&#8217;ve covered here &#8211; despite our attempt  at a long, rambling discourse. For those of you who are interested, <a href=\"http:\/\/teamviewer.com\/\">you can read all the details about TeamViewer  and\/or download it from the TeamViewer Web site<\/a>. I played around with it  this morning and found it easy to use and it works like a charm. Hey, maybe  that&#8217;s why it&#8217;s our <a href=\"http:\/\/teamviewer.com\/\">freeware pick of the  week<\/a>!<\/p>\n<p><em>Notice: <strong>TeamViewer is free for home\/personal  use only<\/strong>. So if you&#8217;re thinking you&#8217;re going to use it on your work  computers, you can&#8217;t. Well, you can but you&#8217;ll have to pay to use it and then it  wouldn&#8217;t be free which means it wouldn&#8217;t belong here in the freeware pick of the  week section. So, we just want to be clear here &#8211; TeamViewer is totally free for  home and personal use. It is not if you want it for commercial use.
