Sorry, I should have given more background, I was going for succinct
focus!.
I have sshd running at home on linux. Remotely, I have putty running on
windows. I can log into my home PC, and can tunnel POP3 and NNTP fine. I
don't know how to tunnel WWW (I guess the correct name is HTTP).

What should I use as a destination IP/port for HTTP?
My home PC's gateway IP? (Just serves me the router's admin page)
My home PC's DNS server IP? (Just doesn't work)
