1) Buy some professional security software (Norton, McAfee)\n   which will scan for a surreptitiously installed\n   spyware, malware, trapdoors, whatever.\n\n2) Spend the $40 to put a hardware firewall between\n   your cable-modem or dsl-modem and your home system\n   in order to make it more difficult for outsiders to\n   get access to your home system in the future.

Assuming they don't give themselves away by telling someone they did it? Nigh impossible. You would have to find out what ip it was sent from, then hack the isp to find out who was using that ip. Not an easy task for even an expert hacker, and highly illegal. And that would only tell you who pays for the internet service. If they sent it from say, a library, you would then have to somehow find out exactly who was sitting at that pc at that exact time. Basically it would take more time, effort, and skill than anyone is willing to put into it, just to find someone calling them names.

Find yourself a port scanner.  You can get one that will allow you to scan the PC, find out what it's called (host name/netbios name) and even give you the username of anyone logged in to it.\n\nI just did a quick search and found one called Angry IP Scanner.  It will do all the above.  Should be enough to provide you with the clues you need.  http://www.angryziber.com/ipscan/

On Remote computer Remotes/Add Remote/Settings/Enter WAN address of PC or Router if it is a Static IP Address no problem,  If it is a Dynamic IP Address uou will have to sign up for one of the free DNS services (DYNDNS.ORG ) Enter Login info/Security options/ Protect item \nForward ports 5631 and 5632 on Router or firewall. Should work like a Charm

If they hook up to the internet and you have remote access capability, then you can.  You can get security systems at cyberguys including a key that you have and if the key is like 10 feet away from the computer, it will shut down and not start up without the key being closer.

You can use terminal services to get access of that computer from you machine and can use MS Office installed on other computer.\nOR\nYou can use any other software for remote accessing like VNC Viewer or PC Anywhere etc to get access of that particular computer and can use MS Office of that machine.

XP remote access can only work with your permission. It requires the person with the problem to send a special request with an option of a password. The Helper then needs to agree by selecting and acknowledgement. So unless someone else has been on your computer it is unlikely someone has managed remote access.

Ahhh....you've asked the "who" question.  You can dissect the system logs and install keyloggers and other system recorders all you want, but none of those things will tell you "who" was on your computer.  All you'll know for sure is that someone was using your computer and possibly where they went online.  Those programs are only useful when you already know who is using the computer and you want to monitor their usage.  To determine the answer to the "who" question, you would need to use some sort of two-factor authentication (password plus maybe a biometric ID or something), or you would need physical surveillance such as a little video camera.  The cameras are quite popular and would definitely answer the "who" question for you.
