My first thought of having this on my network was HELL NO as well.  Trying
to come up with a good list of reasons why this is bad for our CIO.  Does
anyone have any good offerings for corporate remote desktop products???

Matthew,

Have not had personal experience with this, but its smells fishy.

1. Ads and pop-up messages in free versions of this software.

2. Software appears to be predominately Russian with some badly written
English content.

3. Several Forum posts on their own Forum site about how their software is
used by fraudsters who impersonate companies like Microsoft.  (
http://forum.ammyy.com/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=3140 )

4. Their Whois details don't event list a real person but rather a
"WhoisGuard Protection" email contact.

Would I trust their program in my environment, HELL NO..

Anyone out there familiar with this remote desktop tool.  Found
someone using this today and hadn't heard of it.  Let me know if
anyone has anything good or bad to say about it.
