Looking at the command prompt, he's not in the cygwin shell. I think that there's a bug in the latest jre from sun. I installed the 1.5.0_09 update a few days ago, and I can't get any apps to run with it (including irritatingly the Java Control Panel application so I can't change the default back easily...) The problems are NoClassDefFoundError's as well, so I wonder if the class loading is broken in that release... Anyway the solution seems to be to use an earlier jre explicitly: "c:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_06\bin\java.exe" jython-21 1.5.0_06 seems to work fine for me.
