Problems with ssh and tunnelling with cygwin 1.5.12

Hello,
    I'm trying ssh and tunnel to various machines.  I can ssh just fine 
without tunnelling (i.e. ssh user@machine.net).  When I try to tell ssh to 
tunnel (ssh -X user@machine.net), it prompts me for my password, and then 
hangs.  When I look at the task manager, I see that sh.exe is taking up all 
of the available CPU.  If I kill sh.exe from the task manager, ssh continues 
fine and I am connected and tunnelling.

    I'm running XP pro, service pack 2.  I've turned off the XP firewall and 
Sophos virus programs and still get the same behaviour.  The same behavir 
happens on this machine with cygwin 1.5.11 as well.

    Has anybody ever seen this before?

    Thanks for your time,
      Nick
