Well mine did, I ran WinVNC 3.3.2 as a service, had the screen saver on,
connected from a Win95 PC, Got the screen saver and sent Ctrl-Alt-Del to
get into the system again, Resulting in no responce from the server and an
instant reboot.

I ended disabling the screen saver. Oh BTW has anyone noticed that WinVNC
server is *MUCH* slower under NT than under linux? 

A 1024x768 256 color  desktop under NT crawls,
1024x768 65536 colors under linux is quite zippy. Both over 10Mbit
ethernet, over a 33.6 modem connection using the linux vncviewer is slow but
not unbearably so at least for the Linux desktop.


I think that compression could help. 

Subjectively trying out the xfmail mail client I found that
the X11R6.3 lbx proxy is fastest,
followed by vnc and ssh -C (compressing).
