I like cygwin. You can find ssh and a lot of other gnu tools with a complete 
cygwin package. 

Ivan, I imagine you dont use a us-mapped keyboard.. so this might be of 
interest for you :

Putty gave me a lot of problems with belgian keyboards (i wasn't able to use 
the pipe and the arobas ... not easy to assume ...) - i didn't encounter 
those problems with cygwin.

Installing cygwin is pressy easy : go to http://sources.redhat.com/cygwin/and 
click on setup.exe. Setup will be downloaded and run, and next it will ask 
for the packages you want to install and download them for you. After, i 
think you have to run setup again to install the packages.

You'll get a lot more than an ssh client : also an X server (i dont use 
windows, but some of my friends have to run it on their workstation and they 
like to run all their tools in a windows command-line, displayed in a windows 
window), command-line tools like bash, grep, vi, text tools like mutt, and so 
on.

Maybe somebody can translate and send to Giacomo ?
