I know, lousy name, but it's the best VNC client I've ever used. I don't
know what magic they're using, but it's way faster than anything else I've
tried, even over ISDN or an SSH tunnel. It's fast enough that I can't
believe it's VNC... I get better performance from home using CotVNC
over the ISDN than I do using the same bloke's client and server from
work... and that's over a 100bT link... going through the *same* proxy
firewall.

What are you trying to connect to? I use TightVNC on Windows at the other
end and it's fine.
