-  * SSH core upgraded to [[&url(puttychanges)|PuTTY 0.60]]. It brings following changes: +  * Translation updated: Belarusian
-    * Support for "local proxying", where a network connection is replaced by a local command. +  * XML parser upgraded to Expat 2.6.2
-    * Various cryptographic improvements in SSH-2, including SDCTR cipher modes and a workaround for a weakness in CBC cipher modes.

-   * Support for multiple undoes and redo. +
