Jay,

All that pressing shift does is prevent the operating system that is running
the viewer from acting on the C-A-D keystrokes.  That is not the issue here.
The fact is that a VNC Server running on a Windows 95/98/Me machine will
ignore the C-A-D event, because under those systems it would make no sense
to emulate it.
