    That much makes sense, and can be done by using VNC or the likes
    but i need the laptop at work to be using the same ip address as my one at home
    What?

    If you connect from your work PC to your home PC ... and then launch whatever application it is, from your home PC ... there should be no problem. The session on your home PC is not changing ... you are just launching it remotely.

    Bear in mind ... a lot of companies block logmein and similar sites for reasons of Information Security

    Your best solutions in this case are either 1) stop being cheap and pay what you need to for the software to work, or 2) use different software.
