Ben,

OK, the thing to check at this point is the reason that VNC Server closed
the connection - check the Application Event Log of the server computer for
messages starting "Connections: closed", from WinVNC4.  Obviously, you'll
need to look for messages corresponding to the point at which things started
failing!

Cheers,

Wez @ RealVNC Ltd.
