You have two options:

- You can create a shortcut to the viewer. In the Properties > Shortcut 
tab, simply add " [ip address]" in the Target field, i.e.
"C:\VNC\vncviewer.exe" 192.168.0.1
would launch the viewer and immediately connect to 192.168.0.1

- You can create a .VNC file. To do this, connect to the computer in 
question, then right-click on the taskbar of the LOCAL machine, go to 
Options... and go to the Load/Save tab. Click the "Save As" button to 
save your .VNC file for that particular connection. To re-use the 
connection, simply double-click the .VNC file.


HTH.
