Yes, if you have enabled this feature on your Windows XP or Windows 2000 workstation. Warning: RDP (Remote Desktop Protocol) requires that TCP port 3389 be accessible in order to establish a connection. RDP is typically classified as “moderately secure” and is vulnerable to Man-In-The-Middle and Brute Force attacks that would give the attacker full control of your computer. It should not be used if sensitive information is being stored on the computer.
