I have experienced something similar, in my case the toolbar buttons 
displayed a weird symbol as well. To fix my problem, I deleted everything,
including cygwin, and started fresh. It appeared to just be a bad install.
This has happened a couple of times.

Recommendation, reinstall and follow install instructions to the letter.
Well except perhaps that bit about tetex ;)
