If you have CVSNT client installed (usually comes with WinCVS, but it depends 
on what you downloaded) just use the in-build :ssh: protocol (it's basically a 
copy of putty inside CVSNT).  You can do passwordless logins etc - just set it 
up in putty and it'll work fine in CVSNT.  Since CVSNT is a 'native' windows 
app applying Windows patches shouldn't affect it.

As Todd wrote: anything more detailed belongs on the CVSNT newsgroup.
