You can use putty. PuTTY is a free implementation of Telnet and SSH for
Win32 platforms, along with an xterm terminal emulator. You can download
from http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/download.html

Good luck

If you're going to go this route, I would suggest that you read up on
the security issues inherent in using a non-passworded key file - and
make sure that the privileges on the remote host are set accordingly.
