Once you connect to the remote computer you see its desktop and you are able to perform any action as if you were sitting in front of it.

The Mouse Cursor |
|---|---|
The mouse cursor becomes a round point and the remote computer's arrow-cursor will “follow” it. This can prove useful to keep track of where the cursor is at any given time. |
Link Speed and Responsiveness. The limiting factor of the response time of the remote computer is the speed of the link to it. For LAN connections (typically 100 Mbps), you will feel that you're really in front of the remote computer. For Internet connections (typically between 56 Kbps and 1-2 Mbps), don't expect “instantaneous” response from the controlled computer.
Disconnection. Once you've finished using the remote computer, you can disconnect from it by closing the VNC viewer window. If you're using the full-screen mode, press the F8 key and select the Quit viewer option from the menu which pops up.
