Hi Jason,

The "Ridiculous amount of stuff" was sent out as atachments but I guess 
somehow it ended up inline. Sorry for that.

Anyway, I tried to disable all McAfee options (Virus Protection, Spyware 
protection, SystemGuard Protection, Script scanning and email) but to no 
avail. With the previous version of McAfee (version 8 I think) I was 
able to diable enough to get it working.

When I run ssh-agent with the -d flag (which also keeps it in the 
foregound), it works. Only when ssh-agent is started as daemon does the 
problem show up. Looks like a privilege problem to me but I will keep 
digging.

Tim
