Software Update: VNC Connect 6.5.0

There are several programs based on the vnc protocol that can be used to manage computers remotely. RealVNC gets its name from the fact that it is published by several people who have tinkered with this protocol from the very beginning at AT&T. The program has been renamed to VNC Connect with version 6.0 and is available in different performances, from free home use to paid business use. Version 6.5.0 was released earlier with the following improvements:
