You will need an internet connection for your office dialup, unless you choose to call your home by telephone and have your home computer make the connection. Probably the speed of the connection is going to be unsatisfactory.

Did you even read the original post, hiho? VNC will not work in this situation. Even if it could, it's pretty low on the list of options in terms of desireability.
PCAnywhere will allow you to dial in directly to your home computer's modem. That, or something like it, is what you will need if Internet access at your office is not available. Pretty much any other option - including Netbus and SubSeven - require an existing network connection. Otherwise, as they say, you can't get there from here.

Other backdoors?! You want to install hacker tools hackers can exploit to take control of your PC?! Umm, that sounds like a bad idea, don't you think?
And yeah, VNC isn't a good idea.
