A cracker usually starts new processes.

I also use ssh-agent.
Run "env" and see if you have a SSH_AUTH_SOCK and SSH_AGENT_PID defined.
If so, see if that SSH_AGENT_PID matches your process id of ssh-agent.
And see if the file referenced by SSH_AUTH_SOCK is owned by you.
If you have the SSH_AUTH_SOCK environment variable set, you can run
"ssh-add -l" to list the identities that ssh-agent has loaded.
If you don't have those environment variables, look for a
/tmp/ssh-*/agent* file and see who owns it.
