I am getting a protocol error when doing a reverse connection from a 1.1.8.0 server to RealVNC Viewer on listening on a Mac. Is this due to the above issue?

1.1.8.0 has been updated with a fixed winvnc.exe (protocol bug) version.
winvnc.exe is replaced by 1.1.8.1

Tried using the update executable (product version 1.1.8.1) and still getting the same thing. The very first connection from a windows 8 machine comes through ok but then any other connections from the same windows 8 machine fail with the following errors.

RFB protocol error: unknown message type 24

RFB protocol error: bad rectangle: 65280x6148 at 33316,1 exceeds 1920x1080
