Connection error

[Raindog]

I keep getting the following. It happened randomly some day on my laptop 
and I have not been able to resolve it. According to the event log on 
the server, the client is initiating the disconnect. I can connect with 
putty just fine. Running pageant does not solve any issues either. I 
have uninstalled and reinstalled bzr. I am able to connect just fine on 
different machines.
