Overall, UltraVNC is the best VNC program. It has all of the stability and usability of WinVNC with the speed of TightVNC plus the added feature of built in file transfer capability. This is a real nice remote control program that can even be used without a dedicated client. However, there are a couple of issues to be aware of; First, the basic VNC protocol is not encrypted in any way. So if you plan to use the software in an open setting such as open wifi, you will want to use some type of encryption. I would recommend Hamachi for its ease of use. Second, if you plan to manage a large number of computers, you may find the host-list management a little weak. Other than that UltraVNC rocks. I can wait to try the new program "PCHelpWare" which adds built in encryption.
