In Windows 2003 performance is on par with Citrix. Radmin can't touch it.
Also Windows 2003 RDP is secure (could be more secure) but it will
work. You have to also remember that the only thing being sent across
the net are image fragments. Decrypting the fragments and placing them
together would be a challenge.

Why not? I don't know of any current exploit for RDP set to high
encryption, and even if there were any, connections may very well be
shielded by encrypted tunnels.
The only way I could see applying any form of security is to do it
under the protection of a VPN. As for not having the active user
logged off, I don't have an answer for that.
Personally, I'd recommend one of the many other remote desktop tools
out there. WinVNC and Radmin both come to midn quickly. (WinVNC can be
done through SSH. Though I'm not positive, I believe you can encrypt
Radmin sessions as well.) Google both for more info.
RDP can be tunneled thru SSH as well and has much better performance
than VNC (don't know about Radmin).
