Hmm, that's strange.  If you don't have the keys setup then it should just ask for your password for bioinformatics.org, but it seems to be just disconnecting you.  Are you able to login to your account on bioinformatics.org?

http://www.bioinformatics.org/project/?group_id=318


When you first tried connecting with ssh, did it ask you about authenticity, some message like this:

The authenticity of host 'bioinformatics.org (75.126.74.92)' can't be established.
RSA key fingerprint is 18:b2:62:ee:00:76:74:94:c9:e5:e4:28:27:b5:92:14.
Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)? yes
Warning: Permanently added 'bioinformatics.org,75.126.74.92' (RSA) to the list of known hosts.

Maybe somehow it is remembering your host (same IP address as old computer?) and that is causing a problem.  You can try deleting or moving the .ssh/known_hosts file, then try connecting with ssh.
