Try tcpdump? Another possibility, IIRC, is a bad ssh hostkey (I haven't used WinSCP in quite some time, but I recall that its error messages are not particularly informative). You can also check to see if you can reach the server. Try a plain telnet to port 22. You won't actually be able to establish a connection if you aren't running ssh, but you should see something like: Connected to <hostname>. Escape character is '^]'.
