I have access to a windows XP box through cygwin SSH. I can currently login
using a password without any problem.

What do I have to do to be able to log in using keys to make things more
secure. I need to do this as I have found a key logger on my computer so
all of my passwords could now be known.

I use putty and winscp to connect using SSH 2.

I know I have to copy the key files somewhere but where to and also how do I
create the keys in the first place.

Thanks.
