    65What happens is that FileZilla uses pageant, detects thse key pairs I have, connects to the server and doesn't send my password, but tries as many of those key pairs as it can, which I have never asked for (I have not imported any of my SSH keys to FileZilla). After a few failed authentication requests (due to non-matching keys), the server drops the connection.
