Jaqui:
My guess is that you were being ignored because you didn't
describe what you *had* tried that didn't work. Mailing lists are
typically the first place users go *after* what's described in the
documentation doesn't work. :)
To get "Confirm before Connect" working in VNC, you want
to set the "AuthHosts" registry setting on your VNC server to,
simply, "?" (without the "" marks). Most all of VNC's registry
customizations are described here:

Once you affect this setting, restart your WinVNC server,
and you'll be ready to go. Hope this helps!
