Anyone used any good ones? To be used by two people over ADSL between Ireland and eastern Europe for real-time file editing.

I've used gotomeeting before, no complaints.

I've actually just tried out nx there (www.nomachine.com). It works very well for desktop sharing (though you need to enable this in a config file). I've used it a bit in the past, but the sharing is a relatively new feature.

The bonus is that it works very well over an ADSL connection.

Edit: I'll be giving it a full run through on monday, coupling it with Skype for paired programming. I'll report back on how it's working out.

I use Zoho Meeting sometimes. You can do remote control during the meeting
