If either one is there and used, it could cause problems. An easy way to tell if this is the issue would be to download and install the trial version of VNC Personal Edition and see if that resolves the issue. If it does, then you've identified the problem.
Another way to try and diagnose the problem would be to visit the RealVNC "test" page which tests your computer to try and find a listening VNC server. Unfortunately, I don't know the URL for that. I *do* know that there's a page at http://www.gotomyvnc.com which will test for servers on the "normal" port numbers. What I'd have the OP do is visit the above website from his home PC and see what results he got. If it finds a VNC server listening, then you know the problem is somewhere else. Or, if it can NOT find any listening servers, we have narrowed the problem down. I don't recall if the OP has a router or not, but if he does, he might want to visit http://www.portforward.com for instructions for setting up port forwarding on a large number of popular makes/models of consumer cable/dsl routers.
