I was wondering if there have been any security, ease-of-use, or other
qualitative comparisons performed between PuTTY and F-Secure. How secure
is PuTTY as compared to F-Secure? How reliable?

PuTTY is free, I've been using it for years. Simon Tathan only releases
PuTTY from his own site, for security. While the setup dialogs are a
little clunky, the program works without fuss here on localnet as well
as being my 'window to the world' for many years while using a remote
account on an IRIX-64 box.

I cannot make the comparison you ask, I have no reason to seek a different
ssh client (ssh is built into linux terminal session) -- using PuTTY since
last century.
