In order to run any X-windows applications you need a local X server running
on your computer. Under windows you can either use Cygwin-X (
http://x.cygwin.com/) as suggested by Jason, or for a stand-alone X server
you can use Xming (
http://www.straightrunning.com/XmingNotes/). As mentioned
before, make sure you have X11 forwarding enabled in whatever program you
are using to connect via SSH.
Once all of this is installed/configured you should be able to remotely run
Xleap or any other X-based app (such as xmgrace).
