problem that has plagued me since I went with Win2k.  It occurs even when I 
have done absolutely nothing that day involving cygwin thus confirming my 
sources that it is win2k related.  These folks have had the problem as well and 
have never touched cygwin.  I have found in my case though that I can resolve 
the issue in most cases by logging off and then logging back on to Win2k and 
thus save the hassle of rebooting - although logging off and back on is also a 
pain - just not as bad.
