First, you'll need to check that the SSH port (22) isn't barred too. You'll need to have a machine in your home network running sshd/openssh/dropbear. Then, you'll need to make sure that incoming connections from the internet are routed to that machine. (If you have a NAT router, it'll be called something like 'port forwarding' or 'default server')
On your work machine, you'll need a SSH client (like PuTTY). In the PuTTY config, there is a 'Tunnels' section. Tunnel source port 3483 to destination "123.456.789.012:3483 Local", where 123.456.789.012 is the IP address of your slimserver machine in your home network. Then login to the home machine using PuTTY - this will open the tunnel at the same time. Then connect SoftSqueeze to 127.0.0.1 or 'localhost'. If port 22 is blocked by your firewall (as mine is) then you might like to try adding an HTTP Tunnel into the mix. So the music is tunnelled through SSH, and SSH is tunnelled through HTTP on port 80 or 8080.
