ssh caches info on the servers that you connect to, and stores that info
in ~/.ssh/known_hosts, so if you're getting that message, and you decide
that there's no security problem (ssh giving you a false alarm) then
just take your favorite editor onto that file, and edit out the lines
that refer to the server. It hasn't got any sensitivity to "Athlon"
built in, but it's trying to help you out and tell you about servers
that have info that changes alarmingly.
