Give me a break!

Just now I decided to UNinstall the F-Secure anti-virus ...

And guess what ...? Yes, NOW sshd replies again to requests after system
startup!

Now I wonder if I will find the same result on W7 when I install 
openssh.
(yes, W7 also has F-Secure anti-virus installed).

Anyone using F-Secure on W7 and operating the sshd?
