Dear Melissa,
I think this happen because someone (I hope s/he is your Administrator)
changed/upgraded your sshd. To fix it, try to edit your known_hosts2 at
~/.ssh/
or just remove ~/.ssh by typing : $rm -rf .ssh.
If you are using windows then remove putty.rnd (if you are using putty) from
root directory (please read the manual).
I hope this will help you
Regards,
Kalpin Erlangga S
