NetMeeting questions

I am trying to research NetMeeting as a means to work
remotely from home. Does anyone know: can WinXP home
edition connect through AOL dialup (OR DSL)to office MAC
OSX connected via Comcast Cable?
Comcast told me to use NetMeeting, but I can't find
anything on MS website that says NetMeeting is cross
platform.
Please be kind, I am not very computer savvy.

NetMeeting is not cross platform. You might try RealVNC, ie. the original VNC release, that
apparently does run on OS X platforms... Note that the data stream is *NOT* encrypted.
