You might be thinking of Remote Assistance's functionality.
About Remote Assistance
Sometimes the best way to fix a problem is to have someone show you
how. Remote Assistance is a convenient way for a friend in another location
to connect to your computer from another computer running a compatible
operating system, such as Microsoft Windows XP, and walk you through your
solution.
After your friend is connected, he or she will be able to view your
computer screen and chat online with you in real time about what you both
see. With your permission, your friend can even use his or her mouse and
keyboard to work with you on your computer.
Notes
a.. Both you and your assistant must be using either Windows
Messenger or a MAPI-compliant e-mail account such as Microsoft Outlook or
Outlook Express.
b.. You and your assistant need to be connected to the Internet
while using Remote Assistance.
c.. If Windows Firewall is turned on, Remote Assistance will
temporarily open firewall ports.
d.. If you are working on a corporate or local area network,
firewalls might stop you from using Remote Assistance. In this case, check
with your network administrator before using Remote Assistance.
