PUTTY.RND ??????

Hi everybody. I have found a file in C:\Documents and Settings\User\PUTTY.RND Does anybody know what is it? I think it's a file of UltraSurfPortable, but I'm not sure.
Thankyou

Yes, UltraSurf/Portable does

Yes, UltraSurf/Portable does make use of PuTTY.

And as per PuTTY FAQ:

PuTTY also requires a random number seed file, to improve the unpredictability of randomly chosen data needed as part of the SSH cryptography. This is stored by default in a file called PUTTY.RND

Correct, It's Not Putty Portable

Putty Portable stores this file internally within its own directories, so you won't find it on the local PC.

Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!
