It's been quite a while since I used this but there's another thing
called TNT (I believe) which you run on said windows box, telnet into
Unix system, set your DISPLAY and then run whatever app is required.
It has twm built in but you can run your windowmanager of choice using
this. 

as I said it's been quite a long time but the lite version is a freebie.
