If you mean VNC then did you port forward the VNC port on your router to the system for accessing over WAN?

A remote desktop hacker can only succeed ifyou use remote desktopping of some sort. So, what do you use for remote desktop? What network config have you used? Have you used remote desktop to control your PC from outside of your home network?
