I do not use cygwin that much, if at all *hugs
msvs", but I can give you an idea where to begin.
Since your own an win32/nt system, then first open
up the autorun files with notepad, and look them
over.  Make sure everything is stright, you might
want to get a fresh copy of autorun, and over
write your current one, incase anything has corrupted
it.  If overwriteing the current auto-run, or if
the current one is fine, I would start to look into
maybe its cygwin-sided and you might want to do a
fresh
install of cygwin.

Only flame I have is the line spaceing, but we all
make that mistake :P
