I did indeed get it... and how.  Upon installing it on two networked
machines (a SE/30 and a plain SE), and calling it up from the Chooser, it
froze both machines solid.  After forced reboots, neither machine would
start from the internal hard disks.  I'm still trying to repair the
damage.  At a minimum, both System files got trashed, and possibly the
PRAMs as well.  Use of any network-related INITs (e.g., Broadcast, Public
Folder) crashes the machines during bootup.  No important files appear to
have been lost, but I expect I'll have to reinitialize both hard disks. :-(

I haven't found any evidence of a virus, but beware... JCRemote seems
to be anything but benign.

A friendly suggestion for the original poster:

   *NEVER* post something as potentially powerful as JCRemote without
   including reasonably detailed documentation.  A couple of sentences
   telling what it does is not sufficient.

Having said all this, I'd still like to give JCRemote a try.  What's the
trick to using this thing?
