Saw this here: http://sunbeltblog.blogspot.com/2006/05/vnc-vulnerability.html I didn't get time to read the vulnerability info but apparently it warrants updating.

Thanks for the heads up. A cursosry search revealed that UltraVNC and TightVNC are immune to this threat.

Hmmm. Things like this make me worried about having the wireless setup (with VNC no less) to the crack rack. Thanks for posting. I will be updating when I get home... In fact, I need to research on how to get UltraVNC I think...

Thanks, MechBgon! 🙂

Good to know UltraVNC is not affected.

Fullmetal Chocobo, you can get it here:
UltrVNC

I use the encryption plugin, so I can access the work servers from home. Have had little issues with UltraVNC. 🙂

Thanks for the info. I use RealVNC on a couple of remote machines since it's the only VNC client I can find that supports dual monitors properly. I guess I'll have to make a trip the the remote office some time soon to get them updated. 🙂

Thanks for the info. RealVNC has gone so long without any updates. I'd stopped checking.
