You can't even run PuTTy from a temporary directory?  It doesn't require 
any installation.

There is a program called 'Mindterm' which runs a java ssh shell -- all 
you need on the remote client is a web browser.  This program gets 
installed on a webserver (anywhere on the Internet), and then you connect 
to the program using a web browser and it creates the java ssh client in 
the browser.

It says, "Free for personal use."
