It seems the monitoring tool don't use the "official" 0.52 binary,

of being disconnected, plink or putty crashed after the authentication

That's the sort of failure mode I'd expect, at least from our binaries.
But I can't rule out that they would have silently exited sometimes
rather than crashing noisily.

Who is the vendor? Are you sure the binaries differ from ours?
Some versions of Windows come with FC.EXE which will do a byte-by-byte
comparison of two files. Failing that, you could compare file sizes.

You say you have trouble connecting to other servers with 0.58
Not me (in cmd line), but my monitoring software, I don't know why it
fails but as this is a closed source software I don't know how it calls
the plink binary (and which are the arguments);

If you know the hostname it's calling plink with, you can probably
create a saved session with that name, and set that up to log the SSH
packets (and Event Log) to a file where you can see them.
