Go in to the registry, and find the following entry:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\ORL\WinVNC3
change the setting called PortNumber to 100 higher than you want it to be
from the browser. If you want to connect on port 80, you would enter "180"
in decimal. When you look in the option screen, it would be something
really long like 4294961580. That means it worked! Your server is now
listening on port 80 for the http connection, and 180 for the data. Hope
this works for everyone with this problem!
