Putty,

[http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/faq.html#A.1.1]
A.1.1 Does PuTTY support SSH v2?
Yes. SSH v2 support has been available in PuTTY since version
0.50. However, currently the default SSH protocol is v1; to select
SSH v2 if your server supports both, go to the SSH panel and
change the Preferred SSH protocol version option.
Public key authentication (both RSA and DSA) in SSH v2 is new in
version 0.52.
It wasn't in the NT faq as far as I know, but I imagine this will
generate many responses as the answer if probably commonly known. I
would also point you to Tom Roche's page,
"http://www4.ncsu.edu/~tlroche/plinkTramp.html"
A google search on "windows ssh" gives putty as the first link. If
you used "NT ssh v2" or something like that, it does not show at
all. Btw, putty does have command line EXEs as well as the click and
drewl stuff. Pagent is the windows `agent' that distributes
passwords.
