Yep the network simplicity sshd for windows has been discontinued but
cygwin is a good alternative.

install cygwin

install OpenSSL and the cygrunsrv package, and then run

ssh-host-config

and select install as service, enable privilege separation, and then run

cygrunsrv --start sshd

you then have a ssh enabled windows box.
