Not only will VNC then work through your work's firewall, but the

Ideally, yes. But when you can't get to pages on the BBC web site it gets beyond a joke.

It's by no means likely that anything other than http and related services are allowed through. Certainly FTP is not.

Don't suppose you can recommend a package that facilitates SSH on Win NT ?
Cygwin's sshd is actually pretty easy to set up at this point. Plus, it is free.

Setup instructions here:

Cygwin is available here:

I usually do "Download from Internet" and then "Install from local directory".
