<p>Unfortunately the URL of the PuTTY Connection Manager <a href="http://puttycm.free.fr/">website</a> is returning <code>403 Forbidden</code>, and there don't appear to be any mirrors of the last build that was released.</p>

<p>Archive.org doesn't have the <a href="http://web.archive.org/web/20110720224945/http://puttycm.free.fr/cms/">download page</a> archived, so there are no checksums available to verify my own archive. I've hosted the most stable version here for posterity: <a href="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/536200/puttycm-debug-0.7.1.223.zip">Putty Connection Manager 0.7.1 Alpha</a></p>

<p>If you already have this software installed, it is no longer able to check for updates from the target domain. If "automatically check for updates" is on and PuTTY Connection Manager crashes at startup, set this registry value to <code>0</code>:</p>

<pre>HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\ACS\PuTTY Connection Manager</pre>
