PuTTY is a free implementation of Telnet and SSH for Win32 and Unix
platforms, along with an xterm terminal emulator. It is
written and maintained primarily by
Simon Tatham.
The latest version is beta 0.60.
LEGAL WARNING: Use of PuTTY, PSCP, PSFTP and Plink is illegal in countries where encryption is outlawed. I believe it is legal to use PuTTY, PSCP, PSFTP and Plink in England and Wales and in many other countries, but I am not a lawyer and so if in doubt you should seek legal advice before downloading it. You may find this site useful (it's a survey of cryptography laws in many countries) but I can't vouch for its correctness.
Use of the Telnet-only binary (PuTTYtel) is unrestricted by any cryptography laws.
2007-04-29 PuTTY 0.60 is released
PuTTY 0.60 is out, containing mostly bug fixes.
2007-01-24 PuTTY 0.59 is released
PuTTY 0.59 is out (finally!), and as previously announced we no longer provide Alpha binaries.
2006-03-31 Proposed withdrawal of Alpha NT PuTTY
From the next release, we propose to stop providing binaries for PuTTY on Windows NT on the Alpha processor. Our own original need for PuTTY on Alpha NT has gone, and our logs suggest that nobody else now uses it. If this is a problem for you, let us know.
