I got FlashBack Express from a magazine cover- does the job. Not bad seeing as it was free ;) http://www.bbsoftware.co.uk/BBFlashBackExpress.aspx

I use captivate to make all our tutorials and things like that @ work.

For those of you who wish to make a screencast without connecting through a VNC connection (i.e.: you can do all your work on your local machine) I’ve recently looked around for similar (free) software.

If you need audio, you can use CamStudio (http://www.camstudio.org/). If you don’t need audio, you can use DebugMode’s Wink (http://www.debugmode.com/wink/). I personally use Wink most of the time, but again, if you need audio, CamStudio works pretty well and also allows for compression rates (Wink auto-compresses, but can also use palettes). (Both of these programs can export to the SWF format.)

vnc2swf would be very helpful too though, so don’t necessarily ditch it in favor for something else, you might need it one day.
