Why do I get the feeling that somebody was playing the silly bugger and 
now that the trouble has started they have fallen silent? Because VNC 
can be accessed from Windows, which could explain the control of the 
mouse. Seems to be more like prank gone bad if the thing is mostly 
internal and on a dynamic IP anyway. Whomever done it is most likely not 
to do it again or risk getting caught out...
