Just an idea: instead of setting the DISPLAY variable manually, why not enable X11 Forwarding in PuTTY (Connection -> SSH -> X11)? That way the variable is set automagically, and all X11 data is sent through an encrypted link.

NAME
X11::Protocol::Connection - Perl module abstract base class for X11 client to server connections
SYNOPSIS
# In connection object module
package X11::Protocol::Connection::CarrierPigeon;
use X11::Protocol::Connection;
@ISA = ('X11::Protocol::Connection');
sub open { ... }
sub give { ... }

DESCRIPTION
This module is an abstract base class for the various X11::Protocol::Connection::* modules that provide connections to X servers for the
X11::Protocol module. It provides stubs for the following methods:
open
$conn = X11::Protocol::Connection::Foo->open($host, $display_num)
Open a connection to the specified display (numbered from 0) on the specified $host.
give
$conn->give($data)
Send the given data to the server. Normally, this method is used only by the protocol module itself.
get
$data = $conn->get($n)
Read $n bytes of data from the server. Normally, this method is used only by the protocol module itself.
fh
$filehandle = $conn->fh
Return an object suitable for use as a filehandle. This is mainly useful for doing select() and other such system calls.
