    There are several things to think about to be honest....

    A) Is you computer at work on a corporate network...
    B) Have you got a firewall in place?
    C) Have you got a Static Public IP address?
    D) Do you have access to both your firewall and router at work?.
    E) Do you have the administrator password for your Imac?.

    If you can answer some of these questions might be able to help you!!.

    Hows it going, you should see if you can get Log Me In running on your iMac in work. It may be blocked but worth trying. www.logmein.com
    I use it on multiple computers mac and pc without any problems, and its free!
