I also cannot find anything on the search engine searching under a number of
words. =(
I had a suggestion, although it has probably already been suggested, the
archives are numerous and at time quite lengthy...
Is there a way to associate a sound to WinVNC when someone connects? I do
not want to use third party software to associate a sound to it, but nothing
appears in control panel for it. By the way....I love it.
