I know, the problem is that RealVnc is the owner of the protocol. What
happen if they change the protocol or if they ask you a license to use
it in your program?

Don't know, but here:

they claim:

"VNC is and /will continue/ to be freely available to download and use."

UltraVNC is my favorite and has the most options:

Between you and me, I wish one of us had nominated UltraVNC for PL2005.
I had it with me earlier, but didn't get to use it until just after
voting ended. I found it better than RealVNC and TightVNC, both of
which I voted for since they were in the list of nominations.

RealVNC is nice, especially when secured with Putty SSH. However, the
easiest to use I've found are the REMoffice VNC apps: REMserver and
REMclient, at http://www.deltasoft.hr/remote . Donationware.
