UltraVNC

I have been using SC for a long time and I like using it. Recently; however, I have been noticing more and more applications or OS components that require "capture alpha blending" in order to view, especially in Win7.

I played around a bit with SCPrompt since they allow you to change the winvnc.ini ...

Whenever I connect to Windows 7 it allows me to connect; however, clicking ANYTHING (i.e.: click the start button, right click a file, folder, or program, or double click a folder to open) results in a 1 min delay before I see the results of the initial click.

The exe was compiled in the newest ...

That allows the port query to turn out the following ...

Woot! 7zip decompiles .exe(s) :D Thanks!

Ok, now the only difference in the 2 helpdesks aside from the IP addy is the direct statement preceeding the host:

[DIRECT]

[HOST]
Internet support
-connect 192.168.0.4:5500 -noregistry

Must be the problem, at least you would think, but no, nope, nada ...

It was actually one of a pair that were made.

One had my actual IP address and was called PCPatrol.exe and the one she found was one we cobbled for use on the LAN as we could not use the ...

-connect homepcpatrol.myvnc.com -noregistry

to

[HOST]
Home PC Patrol Remote Desktop Assistance
-connect homepcpatrol.myvnc.com:5500 -noregistry

in case it was a port issue, however no such luck

OK I have created an SC exe that I install on my client's systems and have used it repeatedly from almost all of them successfully, that is until today :(

I have changed nothing, my settings at no-ip.com are updating correctly, but when any of my clients click on the .exe, it does nothing... no ...
