Alan, perhaps you are thinking of VNC Server's capability to connect with
any Java-enabled web browser. If you point your browser at port 5800
(default) of the served machine {http://www.servedmachine.tld:5800/}, a
built-in web-miniserver will send a page with a Java applet that, in turn,
connects with the standard VNC port 5900 (default), turning your browser
into a VNC Viewer.
When you dismiss the page, the applet evaporates. That is an
install/uninstall--kind of.
I've had occasion to use that feature--it just seems magical and
extraordinarily clever to me.
Best regards,
