You don't mention anything about the Cisco VPN client, but according to your cygcheck output it's still installed and (probably) running. That's the reason why cygcheck detects ZoneAlarm; it contains a bundled version of the same firewall engine, and ZA in general has been known to cause problems of this kind. I can't guarantee it's the cause of the problem but it's a significant possibility worth investigating. OTOH it could be your McAfee. You should try disabling all the advanced features in that - behaviour blocking, heuristics, any kind of buffer overflow or other anti-malware protection, and see if that makes a difference. cheers, DaveK -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
