Hi, I am trying to install GIT on windows XP, but after installing Git-1.7.0.2-preview20100309.exe, could not able to establish the connection. I followed [GitHub Support](http://help.github.com/msysgit-key-setup/) the link for setup. But unfortunately I got the error “permission denied(public key)”- I also tried to add the path according to > **[GitHub Support](https://support.github.com)** > > GitHub Support is here to help.
