Defender -- So how should they properly permit C:\Program Files\UlraVNC\winvnc.exe using Windows Defender? I thought you did this in Software Explorer but I'm also reading that the opportunity to select "Always Allow" appears only if Defender pops open an alert. Can I just go ahead and select "Always Allow" anyway, regardless of any alert, just to make sure?
Firewall -- I have now installed UltraVNC on my girlfriend's Windows XP, and Windows Firewall seems to include exceptions for port 5800, port 5900 and program C:\Program Files\UltraVNC\vncviewer.exe. It all works fine. Presumably then, I don't need to also add an exception for the C:\Program Files\UlraVNC\winvnc.exe program? If I replicate all this on Vista, it should presumably run okay?
