VISTA Reverse Connection

Hi Dave,

Vista has some kludges to try to workaround the inherent security flaws in
Win32's window messaging system, which unfortunately break the -connect
feature of VNC 3 & VNC 4 Free Edition servers.

VNC Personal & Enterprise Edition servers use a new mechanism that isn't
affected by this aspect of Vista's design.

Cheers,
