I edited the source to make it harmless (putty from official website
instead of virus) and fixed the dependency on existence of c:\windows.

For those who want to see how it works:

I tested on 3 volunteers and 1 reported a virusscanner (can't remember
which one) reporting VBS/Psyme.

Either test on a fast line, or allow enough time for putty to download.
