Have you even looked at the links ?

Both of these programs provide exactly what you ask for.

you could also try PC Remote. I can't seem to find their website right now, but I just got this program a few weeks ago and it works very well.

Remote Desktop works just fine - just remember to punch a hole in port 3389 if the machine is behind a firewall.
