On the machine with the server installed. Delete the string value in
the registry that starts the taskbar icon. It is:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run\WinVNC

There should be a shortcut to launch the service helper in the future.
If not, the command is "winvnc -servicehelper"

Also, the client does not need to have VNC installed. It only needs
vncviewer.exe

Assuming I understand what you mean. WinVNC shows exactly what you
will see if you're using the machine physically. You cannot log in as
another interactive user.
