Remote Desktop Office to Home PC

I have a WinXP Pro at home and enabled for RD Web Connection (I have a
permanent DSL Connection and a DynamicDNS Account) - IT WORKS from
WAN-Side WHEN I USE A DIAL-UP CONNECTION FROM THE LAPTOP. But when I'm
in the office and try to RD connect, I get the message "Could not
connect to remote computer....". OF COURSE I AM AWARE THAT THIS IS A
PROBLEM WITH THE FIREWALL OF MY COMPANY! That's why I changed the
listening ports of Remote Desktop from 3389 to 8080 within the registry
and the tsweb-default.htm (This port is opened, I can connect from my
company to my home-router through this port!)Like I already mentioned
above: IT WORKS WHEN I USE A DIAL-UP CONNECTION FROM THE LAPTOP OR ANY
OTHER CONNECTION WITH NO FIREWALL BEHIND IT. Can somebody here tell me
if there are any other ports which need to be opened within my
company's firewall except for 8080 to get this working? Or what other
security setting wihtin my company could prevent the RD-Connection from
being established??
