fast, simple, remote install for temporary or permanent use. Can take over user's desktop using a network login without logging out the local user.
Cons
Nothing I can think of.
Summary
Needed to take over a user's PC to assist her, ran the PushVNC and I was on her desktop in less that a minute. I like that when you push the install, you can chose to uninstall it on the end user's PC automatically when you are done, or leave it installed as a service so you can connect again with the viewer. There was also no installation on my PC. Just ran the EXE from download directory and I was on my way.
Very Simple and it works

Firewalls need to be turned off or have thier rules edited to allow remote access.
