VNC running dedicated app.

[Thong Nguyen]

VNC doesn't actually redraw the whole screen.  What does slow down WinVNC
currently however is the ability to know when the screen has been updated
efficiently.  This will hopefully change once the windows DDIHooks are
utilized :)
BTW, what you've setup sounds pretty impressive :).
