It took me a while to figure out how to get this working so I thought I might post it here.
If you use a Xserver (I'm using starnet's xwin32) and want an xterm or rxvt etc without having to run the cmd.exe style box as well, then you can do it by creating a shortcut with the below command line in it. Note this will run ssh-agent under this session...
Make a shortcut which runs this for rxvt with bash and
C:\WINNT\system32\PSXRUN.EXE -l C:\SFU\tmp\log.txt -u /usr/local/bin/ssh-agent /usr/local/bin/bash -l -c "/usr/local/bin/rxvt -e /usr/local/bin/bash"

For xterm you need to use X11R5 SFU version of xterm to get xterm to work.

C:\WINNT\system32\PSXRUN.EXE -l C:\SFU\tmp\log.txt -u /usr/local/bin/ssh-agent /usr/local/bin/bash -l -c "/usr/X11R5/bin/xterm"

I hope someone finds this helpful

Hmm this doesn't seem to work anymore but this does

%windir%\system32\PSXRUN.EXE -l C:\SFU\tmp\log.txt -u /usr/local/bin/ssh-agent /usr/X11R5/bin/xterm -e /usr/local/bin/bash
