I use a Dynamic DNS service to advertise to my home network on the internet and have port 9000 being forwarded to my slimserver. Depends on what kind of router in respect to setup. I have a D-Link Gaming Router.
I then use Softsqueeze on my laptop pointed to the DDNS host name. I've even set this up for a friend on the other side of the country.
The softsqueeze emulation is quite good and the streaming works very well... actually amazing that it works as easily as it does.

Softsqueeze always worked for me, but I preferred to run it as an applet instead of actually installing it on the remote computer. However with the 7.2 version of softsqueeze, I can't get the "run as applet" to work. Even if I download softsqueeze from squeezecenter it won't work. I have to download softsqueeze from sourceforge and then it works. I prefer 6.5.4 much more than any of the 7.x versions, but I may be forced to upgrade since I really want a Sqeezebox Boom.

Same here (SC on Windows). SoftSqueeze as applet never worked in 7.2.x (not even on local machine), SoftSqueeze/jpnl won’t start on a remote computer :-( [but works great on all Win/Linux machines in the local network].

See http://www.softpedia.com/get/Multimedia/Audio/Audio-Players/SqueezeCenter.shtml for a possibility... I guess, there are lots of ways to stream media files via Internet to your client at work; This is just one of them...
Have fun!
