Known bugs/issues
This software is at a very early stage and should atleast be considered to be a BETA version :-) Although it has a few minor niggles here and there, there are no serious issues that I'm aware of. The only thing worth mentioning is that the Remote Control Server can sometimes prevent the operating system from shutting down. If it doesn't respond to a Windows shutdown, simply open the task manager and end the RemoteControlServer.exe process.
If you find any bugs/issues, please let me know about it and I'll see what I can do.
