          It is probably started for your gnome session. To get the parent id of your ssh-agent:



          cat /proc/$SSH_AGENT_PID/status | fgrep PPid


          Then use the number there to look at what process that is:



          more /proc/<PPidNUMBER_FOUND>/status.


          On Ubuntu 12.04 you find in the first line Name: gnome-session



          You will probably find something under /etc/X11:



          grep ssh-agent /etc/X11/*


          results in:



          /etc/X11/Xsession.options:use-ssh-agent


          try commenting that out en restarting X
