LogMeIn is pretty good for Windows XP and later.
VNC works on OS X, linux, and Windows (95? 98 XP and Vista?)
VNC works best with a known (ie Static) IP address and needs port forwarding (if you use a router) to get data to the PC being controlled.
LogMeIn will work even if your IP address is dynamic (changes each time the connection is made to your cable / ADSL ISP) and you don't need to do anything on the router to allow incoming traffic to reach the PC running LogMeIn
I would not trust Microsoft to get any remote control software to work very well :)

If you are using windows xp it has its own remote desktop. You just have to open port 3389 and follow the instructions. It is really simple to use, and free.
