A quickie regarding UAC

I think quite a lot of ChunkVNC and find it's the next best thing to installing the full UVNC Server. Don't use VNC Single Click any longer for Win7 purposes.

This is a not a big deal, I'll admit it, but I'm looking for a perfection that likely doesn't exist.

Rudi, I don't know what to do with the 2 dlls you just provided. Can you be explicit about what I or anyone should do with these?

Also, I haven't noticed the viewer "freezes" in Full VNC or in ChunVNC, only UVCN SC.

If turning off the hook driver solves the problem by allowing screen captures and transmissions to the listener, isn't it possible to generate the SC file in a way that accomplishes this? It would be great to have this automated for us.

I'll probably try 7-Zip to look at the executable because I'm quite curious to see if it's there. However, if it is, the creator must use the one it's already got, rather than accepting a substitute from my uploaded "custom.zip".
