you do know cygwin is on the list-of-dodgy-apps? i have found one way around this -- was cruzon around and found that Webroot spy sweeper does not interfere with cygwin -- and for $30 it does really well.

But I immediately downgraded to the previous version and it started working again. Is this a known change between the current and the previous cygwin versions? But when I run my script with a lot of data to process, or repeatedly run shorter ones, I soon run out of resources and fork fails, and it kills Zone Alarm, which does start up again, but cygwin remains wounded until I reboot. It seems like something is allocating resources or processes and not releasing them, and when I hit some magic maximum it all falls apart. Attached is the output I see when the script goes bad. Any suggestions on this one? Thanks, John
