is there a package that will remotely run a unix command from a windows box?

I use Cygwin for the Gnu developer tools like diff, but I'm still partial 
to PuTTY for interactive ssh. (A similar tool for file transfer is WinSCP.)

However, the original poster was looking for remote script starting, and 
for that Cygwin ssh is probably the best choice; more lightweight than 
PuTTY and can run from an existing Windows console.
