I  tested  a few Linux  distribution  to determine which of them I can use to connect to my

office remote desktop running Windows Xp with the help of the free Logmein application.

I used Firefox available from the Linux distros that I tested. The Linux distros  that I  test-

ed  are mostly Live CDs or Live DVDs.
