Liana, give TightVNC a try. You can download it from http://www.tightvnc.com/.
Once you have the host running, right click on the icon in the taskbar tray
and select "Properties". Click the "Advanced" button of the host server
options to find all the options that will allow you to accomplish this.
1) Enable the "Query console on incoming connections" option.
2) Disable the "AutoAccept (instead of Refuse) if query times out" option.
3) Enable the "Allow option to Accept without Password" option.
4) Disable the "Disable empty passwords" option.
5) Click OK and delete the Password leaving this field blank.
6) Finally, click OK and you are done!
From then on, when ever you connect to that host, the client will not be
prompted for a password and the host user will be given the choice of
allowing or disallowing the client access to their machine without the need
for prompting the client for any password.
The dialogue box that appears it's not quite the simple Yes/No box you
asked for but never the less should do fine for your requirements. I am not
quite sure what the difference is between accepting with or without
password. In my testing, after completing the above instructions I was not
prompted for a password regardless of which button was clicked.
Hope this helps...
