How do I (or can I) prevent users from turning off the "Host" on individual PC's?
Can I hide the Icon somehow? Or lock it?

it's possible to hide the icon but not actually prevent users from disconnecting....the only way to keep the host computers from disconnecting would be to change the registry settings to not allow the task manager to be accessed by any users, and if they are running any kind of antivirus or antispyware program it would probably catch that and not allow it to happen.....you can hide the folder that the program runs from and thus also make the icon "invisible" but due to the security features built into pcanywhere the host computer still has to allow access and in the settings of the program itself, if the computer is rebooted or logged off the program automatically ends....so you still would have to restart it and re-allow access, so there really isn't a way to run it in a "stealth mode" way.
