Shameless plug: Check out http://www.deboer.gmxhome.de/ or 
http://sourceforge.net/projects/win2vnc/ for news on and downloads for 
the latest Win2VNC.

These Win2VNC versions are based on the 1.0 from Fredrik and extended by 
several people. Win2VNC 1.3.0 supports wheel mouse, has improved 
keyboard handling and has support for multi-head awareness. Read the 
history for details.

Check it out on SourceForge and drop your comments there if you like.

And the new versions are still plain Win32.
