    Can anyone recommend any free Virtual Network Control software, used for controlling a Ubuntu desktop from a Windows 7 Desktop?

    I have looked at RealVNC, but the fact it doesn't support Windows 7 does slightly worry me.

    I use RealVNC between computers running Windows 7 (64bit), Windows XP and OSX almost every day. Where did you hear it was unsupported?

    The only minor issue I can think of is while connected to a Windows 7 machine, RealVNC turns off Aero desktop on the remote computer until you disconnect.

    TightVNC is the one I use as well no problems, but I'm pretty pretty sure RealVNC works with 7...
