    In fact this is a demo with many limitations (for example the FTP server runs for 60 seconds only)- see the features of personal and professional editions in the link below:

    quite simply. Brilliant.
    Attractive to look at (and configurable)
    Fast to load and portable
    Low memory usage
    Incredibly feature rich
    Supports plugins (and there are several)
    Actively developed (unlike Putty)
    and 100% free.

    Just an amazing bit of software

    Just brilliant! Discovered v5.1 and never looked back. All my needs in one place. Can't ask for anything better. Kudos to the author.

    The best alternative to Exceed, Xming or PuTTY : this program does everything in a small portable executable: X server, telnet, SSH, graphical SFTP...

    I can't imagine connecting to my remote Linux server using another program.

    A must have!!

    This should get 6 (six) stars. The concept is quite amazing.

    Quick explanation: Gives you an X server on the Windows machines which allows you to s***o remote *nix machines with X forwarding enabled!
    This allows you to run remote X based apps!!! (xterm, etc)
