Hi, Dair and everybody.
I found why this problem is happening. Actually not why, but at least I
found that this is not to do with VNCThing or VNCviewer. I was ssh-ing to
other computers. I'm using Linux computers from my Macintosh. The
problem is with ssh on linux. Somehow ssh is locking up after a while.
The computer manager in our lab told me about this. So if I dont' use ssh
and (until he found the solution for this), everything should be fine.
Sorry for this confusion.
