Security with Remote Desktop

A while back I wrote a guide on remote desktop and I didn't go over the security concerns and as a result several people emailed me with problems that they faced.

This article comes as a result of several concerned emailers who are / were worried of a possible hack by hackers. I emailed them several tips and I thought that I could make it into an entry which could help several other people who feel tormented by hackers...

I have written what I have known about remote desktop and what I have experienced, but if any of the readers know anything different, please share it with me. Any information regarding security will be much appreciated...
