I bought a program called secure crt but it coasts  about 100 dollars  and
there are scripts for jaws with it I never had much like with the free
clients.

Folks,

At work, I am setting up a Windows 7 64-bit machine that needs to
communicate with a Linux (Red Hat 5.3) system.  In my current XP computer, I
used the Japanese Teraterm program for a telnet client.  This program was
last updated in 1997.  It will not run in Windows 7 64-bit, not even in
compatibility mode.  My company does not like telnet due to security issues.
I am trying to get Putty, in its ssh mode, to talk to the Linux environment.
Unfortunately, I am having trouble finding the cursor.  I have set it to
blink.  I am not sure if it is best to use an underscore, vertical line, or
block blinking cursor.  

Does anyone have experience communicating with Linux from Windows 7 64-bits?
