Hmm, at a Toronto Boat Show a few years ago I bought a handful of "wire saws". Those are flexible wires with teeth all around and a key-ring on either end. I've seen them used (in movies) by prisoners to saw through jail bars. Mine were sold to saw through glass or ceramic. Now if you could get your hands on some of those and use them like the piano wire described above, you would probably make good progress. Just contact any ex-convict for the address of a jail-break supply house <Grin> Don't look at me now - George of Scaramouche

The wire saws can be found a "Canadian Tire" or any camping gear store. They are great for backpacking, survival kits or as you suggested window removal.
