I find the second cursor annoying. I'm used to a single "dot"
as my actual mouse cursor.

Here's a hack to do it:

Create a transparent 16x16 pixel image named clear2.iff

If you want to make it disappear you can replace a TIFF file
inside the application and the target will be gone.

Before making this change, please quit the VNCViewer.

1) Control-click on VNCViewer.app and navigate to the
following folder:
VNCViewer.app/Contents/Resources/English.lproj

2) Delete VNCHollowCursor.tiff

3) Drag "clear2.tiff" to the English.lproj.

4) Rename clear2.tiff to VNCHollowCursor.tiff

5) Restart VNCViewer and the target should be gone.

It's a bit of a hack, but it should "fix" the problem for you.
