I have to say that i've always found ways around this ... but maybe on two levels... a daemon style mode which will self restart (useful on bogged down pc's that you have to kill a ton of services on (ie infections)) and another option to not install as service but to startup on a one time load style method ... being though - this would need to be two things... (using gotomypc.com as the example - the support desk version) 1) the remote controller would need this functionality to request this built in on the fly which would then add it to the CU - RO startup mode... (of course reusing the same settings and also saving the authentication token (PIN#) to make it the same so the tech doesn't need to figure this out on thier own... and then 2) ask the user for the login so the restart can continue unattended... (and then restore the autologin status to the prior mode on instantvnc) and thanks for everything you do scott... it's becoming very quickly an application that is extremely useful for me and my clients... (i'm still doing that load testing and have loved the higher stability with each beta and RC and release) oh btw - guess what ... i have the client running perfectly under WINE in linux... next up finding a way to make the server mode work (integrating with the VNC server in ubuntu or other X11 mode). it's actually pretty simple... but appears complex until you see that one tiny thing that is like wow.....
