 PuTTY is fairly simple and straight forward with one caveat: Amazon's .pem key pair files are not compatible with PuTTY keys. In order to convert ''.pem'' keys to a PuTTY ''.ppk'' privte key file, you should use the puttygen.exe utility available from the same page [http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/] as PuTTY.
 Next select import under the conversions menu,load the amazon ''.pem'' key file and press the save private key button. Be sure to save the file in the directory where PuTTY looks for its keys.
 Also, here is a good PuTTY tutorial that you might find useful to get started [http://kb.mediatemple.net/questions/1595/Using+SSH+in+Putty+%28Windows%29 helpful tutorial].
