if you don't remove wallpaper, you slowdown responsive from vnc server

so, if you really want to let wallpaper on vnc server
right click systray winvnc... left click Admin properties....

Shaun, Redge is correct - by not removing the wallpaper, the response time will be slow regardless of how the computers are attached (unless you have gigabit ethernet and then it might possibly be better) but you can have a significant increase in responsiveness if if make sure that the vnc mirror video driver is installed on the 'server' machine.
