Can Remote Assistance be installed on an ME machine?

Hi;

Just wondering if I can field Remote Assistance requests
from the Windows ME machine in my office at work. I don't
have a budget to upgrade to XP at the moment, but all the
folks who have been issued XP laptops look to me for
help. I know I can do Remote Desktop just fine, but that
is fussy to set up on the various computers that the rest
of the team has...asking them to send a Remote Assistance
invite is a LOT easier.

Point me to any downloads or patches I would need for
Windows ME (if they exist).

Thanks

NetMeeting does a reasonable job, but only behind the firewall.
