cygwin's files are read-only under normal windows shell

Hello. I've noticed an odd problem with cygwin. When I create a file, e.g.
with wget or something similar, the read-only button in windows explorer is
set
to partialy checked.
Is there any way I can prevent this behaviour and allow executable files,
for instance, to run without disabling that in windows explorer which
doesn't
seem to work,
or by using chmod --recursive +rwx dirname in the shell?
Thanks,
Tyler
