It's one file, nothing to install. It just runs. It fits on a low
density 5.25" disk with plenty to spare. If you can't make putty and
ssh work for you, you probably need to find an environment more
condusive to computing. I'm not ruling out switching jobs/schools
with such an environment change (at least when the economy produces
some jobs to move to): If they're anal enough not to let you do what
you need to do to get the job done, it's probably not a good place to
work and/or you may be able to quit and claim hostile employment.
