Are you familiar with X display? X forwarding? If no, you should
search for that first.

If yes, Google for "windows ssh X forwarding". Something like this
http://solaris.reys.net/how-to-x11-forwarding-using-ssh-putty-and-xming/

Another alternative is to edit domU config file to accept vnc
connections on all IP instead of localhost. Not secure, but handy for
testing purposes. This way you can simply install vnc client on
Windows and connect directly.
