I prefer to search on Wikipedia, it has a link to the official website in a predictable way.
e.g. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PuTTY http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PuTTY points to Putty's official website: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty
Putty is open source (MIT), one could build it from source and even audit the code. Nevertheless, thanks for pointing it out.
- endersshadow 13y agoDuckDuckGo also flags results as "Official Site," which is derived from Wikipedia, as you can see here: https://duckduckgo.com/PuTTY https://duckduckgo.com/PuTTY
- whoopdedo 13y agoBut not if you go to https://duckduckgo.com/putty https://duckduckgo.com/putty
