I would suggest using Remote Task Manager. I have been using this software for some time now and have been totally in love with it. It isn't really a fix for the problem but rather a workaround. It allows you to remotley administer shares, processes, services, devices, the event log ...

I didn't see if anyone had a good method.. What I am needing to do on the network here isn't necessarily hiding the VNC icon to keep users from knowing its being used, but to keep them from CLOSING THE PROGRAM.. We have a remote office, and have been successfully using VNC since January to maintain two servers and various other workstations at that location.. However we have a couple users who habitually turn off the VNC server and then walk away and do not restart the service (and don't bother to even logoff either, but that's another issue). I'm looking for a way to either 1)prevent them from closing it, or 2) if necessary hiding the icon so they think its already closed and leave it alone. Privacy issues with the icon hidden aren't really a concern since #1 we don't have the time or the desire to watch users, we have enough to keep us more than busy, and #2 the company computer use policy addresses computer usage and privacy concerns anyway. --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
