Whenever I use ping it returns the message socket: Operation not
permitted.  This only happens if I am not running the shell as an
administrator otherwise it works fine..  The windows stock ping
command doesn't need admin rights to run.  I am running Windows 7 and
cygwin 1.7.  Attached is my cygcheck output.
