If that's all you want to do, use tightvnc. Small, fast, free, and
works across platforms, unix, Windows, Linux, whatever. See

I've never heard of a firewall that can't be adjusted. TightVNC
works fine with mine. It uses port 5900 by default, but I have it
set to use port 23 (the telnet port, which you don't need, and a
windows box has no business running a telnet server anyway, so the
port is available). I use port 23 because the firewall at work has
that port open, and I'm not about to ask my employer to open up port
5900 just so I can interact with my home computer from work.
