It's not even necessary to have a saved session for that.putty.exe user@host -p 42and similar options can be used.

From the Putty FAQ:
To run a PuTTY session saved under the name ‘mysession’, create a Windows shortcut that invokes PuTTY with a command line like
pathnametoputty.exe -load "mysession"
---EDIT---
In Windows 7, the shortcut has to be in quotes like this:
"pathnametoputty.exe" -load "mysession"

I had referred to Putty Connection Manager as a useful addon, giving one click connects and tabbed windows, but it seems the app is dead and all the files removed from the hosting site.
While checking into this, I found a fork of the project, called superputty (see below) and a reference to KiTTY - a Win32 native version of PuTTY with extra features so here you go:
Superputty: http://code.google.com/p/superputty/
KiTTY: http://kitty.9bis.com/

Yep - looks like the project has died - can't find the files anywhere. Shame. I have edited the post to reflect this.
