It does look like that, but it is not VNC. The gridlines show up when I put RD into windowed mode, if VNC is running or not. Still H8 M$!!!!11

You have an outdated RDP client. You are seeing the update grid the new term services uses to update the client.

To run any application in RDP that prevents it from opening, hold left CTRL then open.
Although EQ should say no 3D device found, VNC mirrors its own 3D device so it makes this possible.

Are you connected to home from work? Why dont you just VNC into your box directly? Just open 5900 and point on your home router. If your company blocks 5900 like mine does, specify a 10,000+ port instead.

Also that version of RDP is SUPER old. Get a new version ... (will remove the grids)

RDP vista+ does not have the "3D device not found" problem, since it supports DirectX (wich lower versions dont)
