Do you mean remote control OF a computer? That means that a program has been installed on a computer (computer A) that lets someone on another computer somewhere else (Computer B) control the computer instead of the owner/user. The remote person on Computer B can move the mouse, click links, open files, etc as if they were physically sitting in front of Computer A themselves. Computer technicians, working with customers over the phone, will sometimes use this as a tool the help fix the computer, especially with clients that don't understand computers well enough to follow the techs instructions. Hackers can use this to steal info on a computer from a distance.

If you meant what you said... remote control computer... I don't really know without a better description. Maybe it is the computer doing the controlling?
