    If it's an RPM, open the console/command line and su to root. Then something like this:

    rpm -ivh /path to putty download/putty*.rpm
    All things are possible, only believe.

    hey thanks for the responce, I ended up downloading the file then using the 'add remove software' in the applications menu

    command line would have been a cooler way to do it though ;)
