Download and install the PC2Me Server on your Windows desktop (yes, it has to be a Windows desktop, although it can be running in Parallels or Bootcamp or VMware on an Intel Mac).

When you install, you'll be asked to choose which PC2Me Server version to install based on whether you're buying:
 the $3.99 USD PC2Me Local Native App
 the $9.99 USD PC2Me+ Native App
- or using only the Safari browser (free trial, then $2.99/year).

Register your PC2Me Server and choose a Personal Server Identity, such as MyName. This becomes the identity you use from your PC2Me app, or part of the myname.pc2me.net address you use from Safari.

Start the PC2Me Server on your desktop. It connects and then automatically minimizes to a tiny icon in the lower right corner of your Windows taskbar.

You'll be prompted to create a Username and Password you choose to use as the Secure Login for access to your computer through PC2Me. You can change this as frequently as you wish.
