Dual-processor NT makes vncviewer hang?

Mmm. That's sad. Well, I must confess that one of our old dual-processor
Olivettis here did have one or two problems with the new viewer.  It's
almost the only DP machine in the building now, and they always were a
bit quirky, so I put it down to the graphics drivers not working well in
multi-threaded programs.

But there may be more to it than that.  The way the threads interact has
changed in the new version, and that's the only thing I can think of
that could be causing this. The old viewer is still available on the
download page - I would be interested if the problems went away with
that version, or with updated graphics drivers....
