Good work!

Could you replace the url with an HTTPS one? https://www.9bis.net/kitty/ seems working.

It seems a no brainer, but I 'm just surprised that putty.org is http only.

That's because putty.org isn't the official site for PuTTY. Think of it like "friendly" domain squatting, then despair at the security implications.

See https://noncombatant.org/2014/03/03/downloading-software-saf... (but many of the points have been resolved)
