Hi Igor
sorry about that last message text seems to had a few problems
OK - I have tried to download the setup.exe program from cygwin site
as soon as I try, I get rrouted to badspammer.html - why? my PC appears to think this is a spambot
I am using windows XP with SP2 installed
I am also using Norton Internet Security
I have broadband connected to wireless network
I have tried IE 5.0, Firefox, and Netscape all do the same
Any ideas?
Dave

Dave,
Which browser do you use? Do you use proxies? Anonymizer sites? Please provide more details about your network setup...
On a different note (a general question to the list), any reason why setup.exe isn't mirrored? Can the setup executable (with a versioned name) be placed in the Cygwin package root directory (i.e., where setup.bz2/setup.ini usually goes)?
