You misunderstood Sergey. He spoke about the special service "simple TCP/IP
services", not TCP/IP! Don't uninstall TCP/IP it's the definitely needed

of services.

Get the last patch of tcsh from
ftp://ftp.franken.de/pub/win32/develop/gnuwin32/cygwin32/porters/Vinschen_Corinna/B20

named
	tcsh-6.08.00.x.README
	tcsh-6.08.00.x.tar.gz

It handles .exe.
