To cygwin.


A Little more info: I actually have 1 client that connects regularly to 
the server. That client uses a program called goodsync. When I block 
goodsync from connecting, the problem goes away and I only have 1 
sshd.exe process running. When I unblock goodsync, I have multiple 
sshd.exe processes running and my cpu gets maxed out. Please test it 
like this. Thanks.
