I looked at the pg_control file, postgres had the proper permission to it.

It seems that last night a windows service pack as added.  I noticed that the 
global directory was marked as (grey-ed)read-only.  I removed the read-only 
flag and postgres started up :-).  I restarted my antivirus and postgres is 
still working.

Is the global directory supposed to be marked read only?
