> I would like to see a better encryption process for VNC, as I have had a hacker figure out my password schema
Besides encrypting the data stream between host and client there is still (IMO) an issue with WinVNC and storing the encrypted password in the registry. RealVNC 4 stores it's settings in HKLM\Software\Real4 and by default users have the ability to read that section of the registry. At first glance it seems possible to remove the user permissions to the key and this stops users from viewing the encrypted password but does not break VNC4. What side effects would this have on other functions of VNC?
