Trying to add SSH key fails

For now that means that your key format isn't supported.

It can also mean that it doesn't like the permissions on your file, which is 
the problem I'm having. I keep my private key as "read-only" and "hidden", and 
win-sshfs is not able to use it (if I type the path manually, and try it, it 
says "access to the path is denied"). If I remove the "read-only" attribute, 
the it uses my key file just fine.

I have the same problem. 

My private key, ida_rsa, is DSA password protected generated by OpenSSH_5.3p1 
Debian-3ubuntu7, OpenSSL 0.9.8k 25 Mar 2009. File is readable and not hidden.

Client is Windows 7, 32b
Sshf Manager 0.0.1.4

If I use a non password protected key it works. It would be nice to shown an 
error message when an error ocurs

Same error, win7, openssh key generated by putty.

Temporary user fix: generate another key without a passphrase
