Dave,
Which browser do you use? Do you use proxies? Anonymizer sites? Please
provide more details about your network setup...
On a different note (a general question to the list), any reason why
setup.exe isn't mirrored? Can the setup executable (with a versioned
name) be placed in the Cygwin package root directory (i.e., where
setup.bz2/setup.ini usually goes)?
