I didn't manage to get authhosts to work either, but with ZoneAlarm it became a non-issue.
You can find tight vnc at http://www.tightvnc.com I get quite good results with tight vnc over an ADSL line. You may also want to consider some of the recommendations on this list and in the FAQ's about 8-bit, limited colors, etc. All of them can make performance improvements. I very much prefer to leave the icon alone, as I consider it an important safeguard for _my_ protection in case a privacy concern comes up. I make it very clear to my users that I absolutely won't connect unless invited _or_ to do after hours maintenance, and remind them that they can always look at the icon to see if I'm there. HTH!
