ssh: sending password from windows client

Hi.
My workstation is Windows. I use putty to connect to unix servers. The problem is that i'm doing it many times a day and each time i need to supply password. I have no control on ssh configuration on servers, because of account restrictions. So i can't use key authentication, how is suggested in putty faq. And putty can't send passwords, it is forbidden.
So, how can i overcome this? Is there any other client that can help me with this, may be with some additional scripts on windows side.

It turned out that Tera term works awfully with Midnight Commander.

So i'm searching again. Anybody know any other terminal emulator for Windows, where i can provide username/password on command line for ssh?

p.s. May be i posted this post not in proper place.
