Maybe this has been mentioned already but it looks like these recent
openssh problems may be due to this idiotic site:
http://sshwindows.sourceforge.net/download/
Anyone want to take a stab at getting it taken down? It hasn't been

Notice to future archive readers - the above URL is evil don't use it.
It will cause you nothing but heartache.
