    Hello, I have a script that starts pageant.exe and loads my key. The script
    works fine when I launch it manually, or when I add it as a windows
    scheduled task that runs while I am logged on to the computer. The
    pageant will not run when I schedule the to run at system startup (not user
    logon), or if I logout the computer and run the task remotely from a
    different computer. In both of these situations I can see pageant.exe
    listed as a running task under windows Task Manager, but its icon does not
    show in the taskbar tray and I cannot authenticate to the ssh server with
    it.

    Any help will be greatly appreciated.
