You may be able to use remote desktop if that is what you need. That is what I used.

rdp (remote desktop) is installed on windows XP

Ultra VNC has a java?? based viewer, if you have Java installed on the school computer

"logmein" is the way to go. its web based and easy to use. I use it at work to browse sites that are blocked from my home PC.

I tried Ultravnc in the past but it sometimes hangs the remote pc.
