I use BO2K on my home network (10bT) and the VidStream is slow in comparison
to VNC (which I have running on my NT server), not to mention it does a
horrible job of dealing with 16, 24, and 32 bit resolutions (the colors get
all messed up).

One of the major drawbacks is that every freaking antivirus tool detects
BO2K as a virus/trojan and usually moves or deletes the EXE.

It gets a lot of bad press because it was developed by a bunch of hackers.
People who use the tool for evil purposes just reinforce that in the minds
of the righteous.
