I don't have a direct answer for a version of XTERM on Win2k, but here is a
free solution if you care to try it. There is a project called Bochs that
allows Linux and other operating systems to run under Windows. You can find
it here: http://bochs.sourceforge.net/ If you were to run such an emulator,
you could then connect to your remote UNIX computer using the free Linux
Xwindows software. Just an idea.
