The only thing about NX 3.5 is that it uses 2048 bit encryption. Risk assessment is always a factor.

A thing discovered and kept to oneself must be discovered time and again by others. A thing discovered and shared with others need be discovered only the once.

Oh, also. With port forwarding on her router, only allow traffic from a list of known IPs if you only plan to access her machine from one place, like your machine at home.
Nothing can make you completely secure. Use a lot of tools to cover as much of the perimeter as possible.

If you can and want to use CLI, use SSH. It is robust and secure and it doesn't need much of a connection to be smooth.
I would also use NX, it is slower as it requires more traffic over the Internet, but it works and you can use GUI.
I mostly use SSH, but when I am on a very fast network, I use NX (by fast, I mean crossover cable).

I personally like SSH, considering most of my tasks can be done via console. However, for the few times I need a specific GUI application, I tunnel it via SSH.
Example, gedit:
It should be less traffic than an entire remote desktop, but with the security of SSH. Should have fairly smooth integration for everything, especially going Unix/Linux to Unix/Linux (Unixs including Mac).Code:ssh user@host.com -X gedit

I've had nothing but puppy dogs and rainbows from TeamViewer.

I also use Teamviewer, and have never had a problem using it. I've set it up to start on boot so its always on. Great program and I highly recommend it.
