Sorry - took this down because someone decided they wanted to try to tinker with my website.

Still, great alternatives you guys have presented.. ill keep mine to myself for now.

kind regards

In case you use a dynamic ip, maybe your dyndns provider has some problems...

After remote controlling several PCs I can say that at this time UltraVNC SC is still more reliable than PCHelpWare. To give you numbers, UVNC SC perfectly runs on 9 out of 10 PCs and PCHelpWare perfectly runs on 7 out of 10 PCs. That's my experience. Maybe others have other thoughts.

I executed my compiled PCHelpware.exe on a nearly fresh installed Maxdata PC and nothing happened after seeing the progress bar while the files being extracted - the program showing the screen with the connect button never appeared on the screen. This was the first time I saw PCHelpware didnt't even ...

still small bug: after closing the server, the empty folder C:\temp_phw\ still remains on the hard disk. that should be removed after usage.

When using repeater: none
When using direct connection over internet: forward the used incoming port to the ip of your pc running the client/viewer

In my opinion this is not possible due to security reasons. UVNC SC doesn't allow this key combination, too. This is only possible by using UVNC installed as a service.

..or just deactive the required CTRL+ALT+DEL key combination on your server by editing the group or domain policy

klick on START - RUN - type in: taskmgr - ENTER

Would be cool to customize the buttons in future versions, I mean to change the button text into my language.

Why not use the windows built-in 'runas' command?

There are also some other methods using a cmd file named 'MakeMeAdmin' which temporarily puts the logged-in user to the local admin group

Do you use a non-standard mouse cursor on the remote machine? There is a bug in uvnc sc that causes the connection to drop right after the connect when the machine you are remotely using uses a 3D-mouse cursor. Try to set it back to the standard mouse cursor and try again. If connection still drops ...

Now I can confirm that the "3D-White" cursor broke UVNC SC. With the standard cursor all works fine again. So, any update planned for this? I think thats a serious bug and should be handled and solved with priority.

Why not use a service like DynDNS?

I also have this problem with a PC running on German WinXP SP2. UVNC SC worked on that PC already some time ago but suddenly it stopped working with the same problems you described. I never could track it down why it stopped working some day. I just gave it up. But now I will try the "standard mouse ...

I used to use the MSRC4 plugin until SALT was removed. Now I use ARC4.

The MSRC4 plugin does not use a salt anymore

MSRC4 DSM Plugin version 1.2.1

vncviewer need use MSRC4 DSM Plugin version 1.1.8

I'd like to give SCSafe a try, but the download link is broken

Any mirrors available?

To anyone who is incharge of the SC tool. I tried it recently, but uploading the custom.zip, but i cannot download the custom.exe. The download just sits there until it times out.

I don't know if there is a feature like this but vnc should have a webcam viewer

I really wish there was a VNC that provided features like Windows Remote Assistance. Just a good "Take Control" / "Release Control" option is all that is really needed.


I frequenty need to help or workwith a person on the other machine. If they ran a VNC server, I can work with them. However, the ...

I need a similar feature. I really want a VNC that lets me toggle on/off control of the remote machine. When turned on, it works like normal. When turned off, none of my keystrokes nor mose movements go to the remote machine. Also when turned off, I should be able to see the remote machine's mouse ...

Does the UltraVNC server send information to the viewer
when the viewer is minimized? Would it be difficult to implement
this?

Would it be possible to get an option to specify, from the client, which desktop should be displayed?

I have system where the taskbar is on the secondary monitor, so when I connect with UltraVNC I really can't do anything at all.

An option to switch which desktop is being viewed (without ...
