Trouble getting to VNC through a gateway

Michael,

I have no problem getting through the firewall etc. Everythng works fine. I 
am just looking for a way to use VNC (viewer) on a computer on which VNC can 
not be installed. So get access to your computer using a webbrowser in stead 
of the VNC viewer.

This can be done from inside the network, but not from outside the network 
(due to a proxy, I assume). Does anyone have experience of tips for this?

Thanks,

Robmeer
