I need to provide remote access for a contractor to a Windows 7 PC. She uses a mac notebook and I am looking for any recommendations for Remote Desktop Software.

As the Win7 machine does not have a static IP we need a service that logs into a server from both ends.

I usually use live mesh for win-win remote desktop but the mac version doesn't support the remote desktop features.

Any suggestions?

LogMeIn, or some kind of net meeting app such as Adobe Connect. Otherwise set up a NAT rule on your router based on the DNS name of the machine and give the other computer your external IP address so they can use the official RDP app.
