Thanks all for helping me fix my VNC problem. I did get it to work...however, I can't get any programs to run. When I log in I see the desktop and icons but all the programs I try always crash as soon as I run them. In fact when I connect I am always greeted by a dialog box that says: Klipper

Hi, I understand I can't run multiple clients for one server with WinVNC. However, I found that if I start a new client, it will automatically kill the old one. This is annoying because your colleagues might not know you are using it. Is there anyone to avoid this. For example, after I start my cl
