Has anyone used it before or does anyone know how to set it up? Or does anybody know of a different program that also supports audio? You guys have all been extremely helpful, and I really appreciate it thank you!
LogMein Pro doesn't support audio? In their comparison chart of their different versions they have a checkbox in the "Audio" category.

On Windows 7 , remote desktop, go to the Control Panel (on the host) "System", "Remote Settings", "Remote Desktop". Check one of the "Allow connections..". On the client run the "Remote Desktop Connection" application (under "Options", "Local Experience", "Remote audio" "Settings" check "Play on this computer". You'll have to be able to directly connect to the host computer for this to work (versus apps like Logmein and GotoMyPC)
