What's wrong with that?

You should have:

in the main window: user2@pc2 // port 22 // SSH
in the proxy config panel: local
local proxy command: plink user1@pc1 tcpconnect pc2 22
or: plink user1@pc1 -nc pc2:22
or better still: plink user1@pc1 -nc %host:%port

The thing that goes in the `local proxy command' box is exactly the
text you would have put after `ProxyCommand' in OpenSSH: that is,
not the command you want to run _on_ pc1, but the command you want
to run to connect _to_ pc1.
