Just to be more specific it is when I am taking control of this computer,
not when I am on it. It doesn't log me out of the computer, just the VNC
session.

So if you use the Properties dialog on 3.3.3R1 then when you click Apply, it
logs you out?  The is DEFINITELY NOT normal behaviour.  ONLY if you
SPECIFICALLY use the LockSettings registry entry will WinVNC ever log you
out of Windows - this setting is disabled by default.

I could understand if you were changing the port number which WinVNC listens
on and it disconnected the VNC connection, but logging you out is another
matter.
