After that, nothing would update, even though the user in front of the remote computer can see everything updating fine.

For me, it is happening with all Java based programs ( SmartSVN, Charles amazing program btw, etc).

You can tell whether your VNC server uses a mirror driver by looking at your Settings-Desktop options under Optimise screen capture (mirror driver).

Disabling it, or switching to application hooking fixes the problem.

There is most likely a benefit in using a mirror driver as it is probably optimized better than other methods, but its not worth keeping if you are having problems with it.

You can also alternatively go to Expert options, find the UpdateMethod variable, and switch it to 0 or 1.

I am fairly confident the setting of 1 is less resource intensive than 0, so I went with it.
