But sure google will give you this option. even though I HATE admitting to a smart alec, I found a solution after reading about port forwarding on the site of the software. thanks, i guess.It's always a good day when you learn SOMETHING! Quote

Have you LOOKED at PortForwardDotCom? Unless your router is pretty obscure there's almost certain to be a ready made "recipe" for RealVNC and similar.
A small tip - For successful port forwarding, you really need to set up static IPs.
If this is XP to XP, can't you just use the built-in 'Remote Assistance' feature rather than VNC.

Sure there are limitations with it though.
