First check out this:

http://www.uk.research.att.com/vnc/sshvnc.html

Although it has a *nix focus, it explains succinctly the theory behind
tunneling VNC over SSH, and you do need to understand this to an extent so
that you know where to set up the SSH client and SSH server, and how to
configure the VNC client and server to interact with the SSH application.
The important part is under the subheading 'Basic Use'.

Once you've done that, read:

http://igloo.its.unimelb.edu.au/Webmail/tips/msg00525.html

and follow it very carefully. Without doubt I've found this the best HOWTO
to setting up OpenSSH on a Windows host.

Note that this method requires you to set up the CYGWIN environment on your
VNC server (and perhaps the VNC client too) - CYGWIN is a Linux emulation
layer which runs on top of Windows. You don't need to learn Linux to use
this method, but you will need to type some Linux commands given in the
instructions. If this freaks you out, you should forget about SSH and
instead perhaps try ZVNC - ZeBeDee enabled VNC:

Note I have _not_ tried ZVNC, so I make no recommendation about its
suitability.
