   doesn't have permission, but the remote person can do
   the task and get full control back when UAC popups or when
   elevated window is closed.
 - Added reverse connection accept (like in old sc)
   Usage: winvnc.exe -sc -run
- Performance changes:
 - There was an issue that Viewer sometimes looked frozen. Fixed
   But fixing this issue caused very fast Server/Viewer update requests,
   pushing the cpu too high on Server.
 - CPU throttle added, so WinVNC usage stay below 40%
 - Idle detection added to lower cpu when desktop is static
 - Tweaks for older cpu to keep the cpu lower
 - vnclog fixed, was using cpu even when not enabled
- Usage box updated:
 -run needs to be the last uption
- Connection:
 - Reverse connection and running as service fixed
 - Added service_commandline = -autoreconnect
 - Dual logon box fixed
 - XP64 mirror driver added
 - Fixed mirror driver disabling on Viewer disconnection
 - Added extra check
   When changing settings the runas dialog asks for permission to make 
   changes, default is NO.. a popup tells you this in case a permission 
   is denied

UltraVNC - Update - 3 August 2008:
- Exceptions thrown with no message cause access violations when Report called.
- All message boxes are now properly parented to the Viewer window so that they
  are modal.
- Socket timeouts are now used during file transfer so that connections lost
  while connected to a Repeater are detected
- A small keepalive message is sent every 5 seconds after receiving a file chunk
  to keep the Server or Viewer from timing out during a read.
- The prompt for exit is now respects the m_fExitCheck setting if the 'x' in the
  full screen titlebar is clicked
- Another big change to the file transfer module is that a temporary file is used
  to hold the file being transferred. When it is successfully completes, it is
  moved to the original file name -- resume still works too. This was because
  when a file transfer is interrupted, a user (ie, service tech) can't tell
  if the file is complete.

  file transfers. You can't close the window with the 'x' during a transfer,
  but you can otherwise

[Admin]
UseRegistry=1

UltraVNC 1.0.0 RC20.1, 1.0.0 RC20.2, 1.0.0 RC20.3:
- FileTransfer bugs seem all fixed this time. All the regressions due to the
  new asynchronous transfer mode + delta transfer should be solved.
- New FileTransfer Impersonation mode.
  Available only when WinVNC is run as a service.
  A user that connects to WinVNC and that is not yet identified by
  the Server (Windows authentication, so he can see the Windows login screen)
  has no access to the Server's filesystem through UltraVNC FileTransfer GUI.
  He must login into Windows first. Once identified, the user only has access
  to the filesystem resources allowed by his Windows profile.
  This mode can be desactivated by an admin if necessary:
   "FTUserImpersonation=0" in the WinVNC registry branch. In this case, the
   whole filesystem can be accessed by users, without restriction, like in
   previous UltraVNC FileTransfer versions.
- New color modes: 64 colors, 8 colors, 8 GreyScale, 4 GreyScale, 2 B&W
- The JavaViewer also supports the new color modes

- New "modern" dialog boxes look (Windows XP)
- Slighlty redesigned and tweaked dialog boxes both in VNCViewer and WinVNC
  so they are more readable and look better.
- MS-Logon II: lot of new features and bug fixes (see whatsnew.txt for details)
- Optional Alpha-Blending capture mode
- Optional Alpha-Blending screen-blanking mode (see whatsnew.txt for details)
- Last Viewer settings are automatically saved in a "latest.vnc" file in current
  users's "local settings" Win directory. So next time the user runs the Viewer
  these settings are automatically reloaded.
- New single-http-connect port support. A separate WinVNC1P.exe is available
  and necessary to get this functionnality. This new fonctionnality will be
  included in the regular UltraVNC Server as soon as possible.
- New Single-Click UltraVNC Server. The Setup can be customized and generated
  online on the uVNC web site. Please see the Forum and Website for details.

UltraVNC 1.0.0 RC19.7:
- FileTransfer fixes
- Registry (service) fixes
- Blank screen now uses layered window (Windows 2000)

  Doesn't work in combination with the driver
  If Alpha blanking can not be used, the older DPMS method is used instead (auto)
  The Screen Blanking with AlphaBlending can show some content on the screen,
  if you create a "Background.bmp" file in WinVNC directory, this bitmap is used
  instead of the default black background.
  Alpha ScreenBlanking can not Hide the Cursor, and sometimes the menus go to the foreground.

UltraVNC 1.0.0 RC19.6:
- Extra registry parameter "CaptureAlphaBlending"
- winvnc1P.exe (1 port for http, seperate version, don't now status with normal Viewer and plugins)

  Only the logging.dll is needed, If other DLL's do not exist,
  that specific check is skipped.
  If you remove authadmin -> Local admin has no access
  If you have active directory,workgrpnt4 is not needed
- Bug fixes:
  Windows NT4 crash
  FileTransfer fixes
- Viewer use the selected language
  To manually change the language of the Viewer, copy the correcponding
  xxx.dll from the /lang directory as lang.dll in the Viewer directory

UltraVNC 1.0.0 RC19:
- Semi "Fast User switching support
  For each user session you switch to, a seperate UltraVNC Server is started on the next port.
  User session A on 5900, after user switch, Viewer get black.
  User session B on 5901 gets active, after switching back to session A,
  first user session Viewer get back active
- Shutdown
  Shutdown, VNC stops as last service. Needs to be tested,
  because VNC is not stopped at all, service breaks when network become unavailable.
- Bug fixes
  Screensaver and lock screen caused Server hung running as application, fixed
  logon blocks, and screensaver resolution changes are better handled.
  Plugin had a realy bad network behaviour, fast small updates like in
  "Starfield screensaver preview" could crash your network...
  Manual update after logon/screensaver fixed
  Fixed blank screen and Windows XP SP2
  Cancel button in VNCViewer fixed (now it actually stop connection process)

  Only the primary session can open the Admin properties "FUS"
- Multi-headed display (multi monitors support)
  Without Video Driver: user can toggle between primary or secundary display
  With Video Driver: switch toggle primary,secondary or both displays
  Selection is done using the "Full Desktop" Toolbar Button (which is normally used
  to toggle from Single Window to Desktop modes)
  "Server cursor handle", not supported if secundary screen is left (with driver)
  Tested on 2 card system
- JavaViewer
  Now supports FileTransfer (same kind of GUI than in win32 Viewer, but simpler...
  more functions will be added gradually (multiselection of files, directory transfer..)
   -> the JavaViewer now needs to access the viewing machine harddrive, so the user is
      prompted for an "UltraVNC" signed applet certificate acceptance.
  Support MS-Logon authentication method
- FileTransfer
  Now supports Delta Transfer for files (-> also provides Resume Interrupted transfer)
  Now transfers are asynchronous if wanted:
  When FileTransfer GUI is visible -> no screen updates, max speed for the transfer of files
  When FileTransfer GUI is minimized -> screen updates and file transfering at the same time
  Added multiselection for files deletion
  Added Rename File/Directory command
  Fixed some bugs with Directory Transfer (names with "(" or ")")
  Fixed huge files transfers and progress gauge corrupted display (> 2GB files)
  Added progress percentage value display
  A lot of code cleaning and sanity checks (both in Viewer and Server)
  New Viewer FileTransfer is still backward compatible with previous Servers (<= RC18)
  Directory Names are now surrounded with "[ " and " ]" in the GUI lists
- MS-Logon
  MS-Logon II
  Added a new MS-Logon authentication method (aka MS-Logon II).
  Should work with Windows NT4/2000/XP/Server 2003.
  (See mslogon.html for a detailed description)
- Ability to authenticate cross-domain, i.e. the user account
  can be in another domain than the computer account.
- Stores access settings in an ACL:
  Unlimited number of users/groups can be configured
  Each user/group can have full access/viewonly
- New UI: Standard MS Security Editor
- MSLogonACL: Tool for exporting/importing ACL
- Only one (1) Windows logon attempt is performed.

  (see https://forum.uvnc.com/viewtopic.php?t=1259&highlight=#4702)
 - Fixed: Certain passwords (e.g. Abc0DefG) lead to authentication failure
  (see https://forum.uvnc.com/viewtopic.php?t=803)

   When turning the SCROLL-LOCK on, the following things happen:
   Pressing ALT+TAB DOES NOT switch applications on the client side. Instead, ALT+TAB is sent to
   the VNC Server.
   Pressing CTRL+ESC DOES NOT open the start menu on the client side. Instead, CTRL+ESC is sent to
   the VNC Server.
   Pressing ALT+SPACE DOES NOT open the system menu on the client side. Instead, ALT+SPACE is sent
   to the VNC Server.
   Pressing Break/Pause key toggles Full-Screen mode on or off.
   Pressing PRINT-Screen key requests a full screen update (same as selecting "Request Screen
   Refresh" from the system menu)
   All the above can be disabled by turning the SCROLL-LOCK key off.

  Open guest access is checked and MS-Logon is regused on systems where guest account=1 AND force guest=1
  AD mixed and native: Group and password are checked using the ADSI SDK (LDAP)
- added ConnectPriority=3: refuse multiple Viewer connections
- Added even more memory controle functions
- Users without HKLM access can run VNC as application
- Added VNC loggons to system event logging (NT)
- UltraEncoder isolated from other. This encoder is experimental and use a faster Viewer screen update
  mechanism. When switching (manual) from or to this encoder some black rect can appear. Does not support
  caching and local cursor shapes. This encoder is no longer part of the auto mechanism.

UltraVNC 1.0.0 RC10:
- Added secure memcopy/memcmp to prevent Server crash
- Windows NT4 video driver does not exist..so put it always false
- NewSWsize could cause problems, needed to be send from client thread
  enablecache could cause delete cache to give memory error, fixed
  some extra logging
- Moved restart driver to vncDesktopThread check part.
  Driver is not restarted middle of an update
- Disabled detect slow encoder (the auto switch between hookdll and driver
  does not work 100%)
- DisableTrayIcon reg value added
- MS-Logon passwd length fix
- MS-Logon is moved to machine reg settings, no user setting
- MS-Logon is moved to 2 seperated DLLs.
  groups and nested groups (AD) should work know
- MS-Logon added testutil
- Added home page and online help menu items
- String VNCViewer moved to table to be easy translated
- Added Viewer flash window
- New superfast Ultra Encoder using real time compression/latency reduction
  and the faster Viewer screen updates

UltraVNC 1.0.0 RC09:
- Windows NT4 8bit crash fix
- 24bit driver mode crash fix
- "Unlock Server" crash detect and fixed
- Windows Server 2003 driver support added to Server and drivers
- Added new about box
- Auto Check "Cache Encoding" when XORZlib encoding
  is clicked in options dialog.
- Fixed ".vnc" saving bug with some params
  (ServerScale, EnableCache...)
- Quick Options handling code cleanup
- Added Test if Options Dialog is open while
  terminating the Viewer (-> prevent a crash)
- CTRL+ESC, ALT, CTRL, CTRL+ALT+DEL are now
  forbidden in ViewOnly mode
- Viewer menu simplified and completed
- Added Accelerator Keys (Hot Keys). They are
  displayed in the Viewer's menu.
  (All are CTRL+ALT+Fxx keys)
- Added AutoScaling: now the Viewer window can be
  auto scaled/stretched so the Server's screen is
  entirely visible (no scrollbars). The option is
  available along Quick options.
- Viewer Scaling factors is now percentage in the
  Options window. More clear for users.
- Hopefully fixed the screen refresh locking after a
  FileTransfer occasionnal bug.
- Simplified Viewer TitleBar display (removed "VNC
  Viewer". Was useless and now we can directly see
  the hostname in the task bar).
- Added hostname in the FileTransfer window Title bar.
- Hopefully fixed the scaling crash that occurs in
  all others VNC distributions due to the StretchBlt()
  function + hardware acceleration.
  Visual quality remains equivalent when scaled.
- Added a 30s delay between 2 encoding changes when
  using Auto mode. It should prevent some problems
  over slow connections...
- Added ".vnc" load button in the "Connection" Dialog

UltraVNC 1.0.0 RC08:
- The last major memory leak has been fixed in WinVNC
- WinVNC occasionnal crash under Windows NT4 during initial screen loading has been fixed
- The CTRL,ALT,SHIFT keys locking bug has hopefully been fixed
- The Viewer's authentication window has been renamed "VNC Authentication" instead
  of "UltraVNC Authentication": now UltraVNC Viewer is compatible again with
  the VNC-Quickdesk password transmission method...
- Some additionnal tests have been added to prevent possible crashes:
  - "MS-Logon + no domain + WinVNC under Windows 9X" case
  - OS Version is better checked when Video Driver is required by user
- Fixed the scaling factors corruption problem when using "AUTO" quickoption in
  the Viewer.
- The DSMPlugins know their loader: VNCViewer or WinVNC (application
  or service). It should be now more easy for plugins writters to save their plugins
  configuration at the good location in the registry, for instance.
  TestPlugin example source code has been updated consequently.

UltraVNC 1.0.0 RC07:
- TextChat GUI improvements (colors, buttons)
- Textchat scrolling under Windows 9X/ME fixed
- Viewer refresh after Texchat fixed
- TextChat & FileTransfer windows can be redisplayed on the foreground
  when masked in Fullscreen mode by clicking on their corresponding buttons.
- FileTransfer GUI double-click bug fixed
- UltraVNC icon slightly changed
- Toolbar tooltips now appear faster
- Viewer "notoolbar" command line option replaces the stupid "showtoolbar"
  option...
- WinVNC "connect" option fixed (works with host, host:display and host::port)
- Fixed "quickoption" command line option bug in VNCViewer
- Added "Log Infos" and "Allow Loopback" options in WinVNC Property page
- UltraVNC is now compatible with PalmVNC2.0 even at the Server screen
  scaling level.
- Fixed Viewer crash when aborting connection
- Remove Wallpaper after disconnection bug fixed
- NTML mechanism now checks Local and Remote for Group and Password.
- Fixed a bug with changes detection in WINVNC under Windows 2000/XP: when the
  "Video Hook Driver" option was checked and the Video Driver was not
  actually available (not installed for instance...) then the default
  "System HookDll" was not loaded (even if the option was checked).
  The result was missing screen updates, especially with checkboxes,
  low accuracy and low speed. The workaround was to uncheck the
  "Video Hook Driver" option.
- DSMPlugin action now starts BEFORE the RFB protocole handshaking
  (-> 1.07 Viewer/Server DSM compatibility with 1.06 is broken
  but existing Plugins remain compatible with 1.07)
- Info messages are now displayed when connection fails with DSMPlugin
  (Plugins incompatibility, missing etc...)
- DSMPlugin now supports MS-Logon method
- Slightly modified TestPlugin sample
- Added "dsmplugin" command line option in VNCViewer
- Video Driver handling:
  - Auto switching to default system hooking when 24bit color depth is used
    on Server (the driver not used in this case)
  - 8bit color palette support
  - WinVNC keeps the attached-to-desktop bit to 1 until VNC unloads the
    driver -> No more crashes when an application changes the display
    (ex: pinball). No more risk that color depth or screen resolution
    switching crash the Server.
- New Video Hook driver 1.0.7 (+ New separate Video Drivers Auto-Setup)
