Igor, I run rxvt from a .bat file :-
@echo off D: chdir \cygwin\bin rem set CYGWIN=tty rem set TERM=cygwin D:\cygwin\bin\rxvt -ls -fg green -bg black -cr red -sl 1000 -sr -fn 'Lucida Console-20' -e bash --login -i ...and no matter what I do I can't make the ^C do what I want ! I'm more or less resigned to living with it - thanks for taking the time to make suggestions.

Are you launching bash from cygwin.bat? If so, it is launched with a '--login' option, which will execute /etc/profile and others. What are the parameters to the bash that rxvt launches? Do you give the '--loginShell' or '-ls' option to rxvt? Try running 'rxvt -ls -e "bash --login -i"' and see if the behavior changes.
