That depends on the configuration of the terminal answerback string
in PuTTY, the terminal your server thinks you use and even the
keyboard layout on the windows box (according to Mr. Tatham, who
says that sverok (.se dvorak) won't work).
I'd recommend you try the devel snapshot of PuTTY. I don't think
PuTTY itself did anything wrong, it's likely to be related to the
configuration clash that I suspect.
Otherwise, SSH (www.ssh.com) has a free, but huge, bad and slow win
client, free for non-commercial use.
Personally, I'm sitting in PuTTY writing this in Mutt and elvis. :)
