Short description

PuTTY is a useful tool which is free to use. It allows the use of Telnet or SSH protocols to connection from one computer to another with encrypted forms of communication. Typically such a connection is used on Linux machines between servers, for multi-login systems, mulit-user dungeon (MUD) gaming and for other reasons. In these days of data snooping by governments and large corporations, an application like PuTTY is ever more useful to ensure that simple communications between computers over a network can be transmitted securely without the risk of eavesdropping. There are detailed instructions and a FAQ on the developer's site explaining how to use PuTTY correctly.
