How remote is the connection between the Windows box and the Linux server?  If 
it's just 
a LAN connection between them, 100Mb, just get the Cygwin X server, which 
provides an X 
server for Windows machines, and then you can putty to the Linux box, run the 
application, but have it display on the Windows box.

If it's a slow/wide-area/internet link between the Linux and Windows boxes, 
then I'd 
suggest the FreeNX implementation of NX.
