They are most helpful in getting the program to work..:) Everyones configuration and setup is different so it makes it had to troubleshoot at times..

to be honest I didn't...I only disabled any firewall or anti-virus I have but haven't tried it yet. Time is something I lack, unfortunately. I just need someone to assist me 'live'. Any help would be appreciated, otherwise, i don' t have a taste for ironic remarks.

I see no one's eagger of helping me..I see..ok, maybe someone who can spare a few words can tell me why this software (I wonder why I still keep it) gives me this error when I start Windows (seems to be showing up everytime other programs on my computer initialize at start up). It became very annoying. Follow this link to see the image (sorry, I could not figure it out how to create a hyperlink here):

you use wrong command of winvnc
so it show you the available and working command line available.

what do you mean "wrong command"? I removed vnc from the start up programs, still it loads itself up anytime windows starts (I get two winvnc.exe-s and uvnc_service.exe in the list of running programs, when I press CTRL+ALT+Delete). I could not find any setting to correct this. I only want it to start when I run it. Could it be because it checks for available internet connection? I have to dial up before using internet.

I solved the problem by deleting the Ultra VNC folder in the Program Files section. If others encounter the same problem, write me. Cheers.
