Hello,

Just a minor thing with the current release version.  When connecting 
through an Intranet with a proxy secured gateway, some users are prompted 
for a user ID and password.  Normally this would require using a Java 
Client version, so from my office I would need to connect using a URL of 
http://someipaddress.net:5900.  This should work, except that all oubound 
requests are blocked without a user name and password.  This does get a 
prompt, but then does not connect.  I think this may be because the window 
then spawns another window, which does the actual connection.  If the 
server did not spawn a new window, I would probably be fine.  I could 
possibly be wrong, and the port might be blocked, but the java applet 
seems to get downloaded, but never does anything.  It could also be java 
permissions, so feel free to ignore this.
