Ankush:

1> For a very simple setup, get TightVNC from www.tightvnc.com for 
your Windows machine.

2> Setup a tunnel in PuTTY from local port 5901 to remote port 5901 
on your Linux machine.

3> SSH login to your Linux machine and start VNCSERVER.

4> Start TightVNC on your Windows machine and point it to 
localhost:1.

5> Presto changeo you will have a Linux desktop on your Windows 
machine with secure login.

6> Ooops I forgot one thing.  You need to edit ~/.vnc/xstartup and 
uncomment the two lines to allow you to have a normal desktop.  It 
will be obvious when you edit the file what to uncomment.
