The reference you gave states:
| Current development snapshots of PuTTY are believed to have this
| problem fixed. Unfortunately, we are in the middle of heavy code
| restructuring and not currently in a position to make a stable
| release, but the current snapshots should be good enough for anyone
| for whom this is a problem.
In particular, PuTTY development snapshots from 2003-01-10 onwards
contain the fix, as will the next stable release (whenever that may
be).
