Timeout after 'Using username xxxxxxx'

I have about 40 clients that connect to an openssh server on a FreeBSD 4 box. I only have one client that can't connect to the box. They are using WinSCP 3.7.6. I've upped the timeout to as much as 120 seconds, but get the same result. We've also tried to connect with putty, but get the same result. Here is an attempted connection log:

Has anyone seen anything similar? It's isolated to this one client. The rest of my users have no problems at all, and are using various versions of winscp and putty.

Thanks.
