Theo -

That did it!!  Many thanks.

By the way, after opening the VNC window and leaving, when I go to the server, the Network Alert icon is no longer there. It is probably due to my saying Yes when I came up in VNCviewer and it asked if wanted to delete an applet (I think it was an applet).

Would you know if any damage has been done and how I can restore the function that checks to see if I need to do an update?

Using Putty, log onto the server.  Then type in

vncviewer server:1

and "see" the Desktop of the server *without* having the vnc ports open on the server; instead have the vnc data transferred via the SSH connection.

Start the vncserver and verify that it works locally by doing a vncviewer server:1 on the same machine (this should give a nice picture in picture in picture..). This is what already works, right? From a windows machine setup the a putty session by having a tunnel forwarding local port 5901 to server:5901. Then start a vncviewer on Windows (Realvnc/Tightvnc) and go to localhost:1 (so not to server:1) (You tried to start vncviewer in the putty shell? This will not work)
