VNC Viewer Error

[Seak, Teng-Fong]

	Are you sure you really want viewer in *listening* mode?  Or do you just need a viewer (ie so as you could type in a computer name) ?  Look carefully!  They are different.

	If you're really wanting to use "listening viewer" and come across this problem, and suppose that you're using Windows platform, take a look at Start menu > Startup folder to see if you've got a shortcut there.

	If there's none, then you will need to check if the port 5500 is open.  This can be done with the following command line:
netstat -n -a -p tcp

	Good luck
