What does Unyte Lyte do ?

Ready to share desktopThe Unyte Lyte plugin for YIM lets you see your friends desktop in real - time. The plugin should be installed on both yours and your friend’s computer to enable desktop sharing. After installing the plugin, open a chat window with the person whose desktop you want to see. Then click on Plugins — > My Plugins. Click on “Start” beside the “Unyte Lyte” plugin. The plugin will start and wait for your friend’s confirmation to start desktop sharing. The first person to start desktop sharing will be allowing his friend to see his desktop.

Be there, virtually! Easy, fast and free, Unyte Lyte provides 1:1 desktop sharing to Yahoo users. With one click invite contacts from your Yahoo! Messenger list to “see” your desktop. Review homework, play new games, co-browse, edit documents, demonstrate software, give presentations.
