This was an old bug, fixed around 0.59, which apparently regressed when I rewrote the main event loop using the toplevel_callback mechanism. Investigation just now suggests that it has to do with my faulty assumption that Windows PeekMessage would deliver messages in its message queue in FIFO order (i.e. that the thing calling itself a message queue is actually a _queue_). In fact my WM_NETEVENT seems to like to jump the queue, so that once a steady stream of them starts arriving, we never do anything else in the main event loop (except deal with handles). Worked around in a simple and slightly bodgy way, namely, we don't stop looping on PeekMessage and run our toplevel callbacks until we've either run out of messages completely or else seen at least one that _isn't_ a WM_NETEVENT. That way we should reliably interleave NETEVENT processing with processing of other stuff. |

PuTTY README
============
This is the README file for the PuTTY installer distribution. If
you're reading this, you've probably just run our installer and
installed PuTTY on your system.
What should I do next?
----------------------
If you want to use PuTTY to connect to other computers, or use PSFTP
to transfer files, you should just be able to run them from the
Start menu.
If you want to use the command-line-only file transfer utility PSCP,
you will probably want to put the PuTTY installation directory on
your PATH. On Windows 7 and similar versions, you can do this at
Control Panel > System and Security > System > Advanced system
settings > Environment Variables.
Some versions of Windows will refuse to run HTML Help files (.CHM)
if they are installed on a network drive. If you have installed
PuTTY on a network drive, you might want to check that the help file
works properly. If not, see http://support.microsoft.com/kb/896054
for information on how to solve this problem.
What do I do if it doesn't work?
--------------------------------
The PuTTY home web site is

Here you will find our list of known bugs and pending feature
requests. If your problem is not listed in there, or in the FAQ, or
in the manuals, read the Feedback page to find out how to report
bugs to us. PLEASE read the Feedback page carefully: it is there to
save you time as well as us. Do not send us one-line bug reports
telling us `it doesn't work'.
