I use Radmin heavily at work and it does support 128-bit encryption. However, I don't like it because to get a decent screen refresh, I have to set polling at 100 times a second which causes baseline CPU usage at about 12-15%. When looking at a production server this is severely performance draining. I have to set the polling to be at 5/second to get decent CPU performance, but even typing is horrible at this rate. Also it doesn't detect the state of the CAPS LOCK key, so when logging in with passwords of mixed cased, it is impossible to determine if caps lock is on from the dialog box. Once into Windows you can use the on screen keyboard, but that doesn't help when logging in. Overall while I like the security of Radmin. You can use NT permissions for logins instead of creating new logins just for this. It overall saps my productivity by being slow or only being fast at the expense of my production servers.
