I'll be leaving for uni soon and would like to know the different methods of connecting remotely to my home pc.

I know about VPN but are there any other ways? Also how secure is each of this method as I wouldn't want snoopers on my home-pc especially when I'm away.

Also can i set up a remote connection to start and shut down my computer

My operating system is windows, but if linux is more secure i would be willing to switch.
