Gerrit, 5.8.1-1 is a test release which works only with cygwin-1.5.2 or later, if it works for you, it is ok, just stay with it, perl-5.8.0 is a 'regular' bugfix for the current (stable) release which works also with cygwin 1.5, i.e. with 1.3.22. Thanks for this. I did get some strange

Rob, Actually, this behavior also depends on the filesystem you use. CYGWIN=ntsec alone only helps if you have NTFS. For FAT you also need ntea (i.e., CYGWIN=ntsec ntea -- be aware that it'll create a large file in your drive's root directory). I believe permissions on FAT32 were broken

Rick, Neither dillo, nor gaim are part of the standard Cygwin distribution. If you got them from somewhere other than the official Cygwin mirrors, you might have better luck contacting the mailing lists set up for those programs, if they exist, or the maintainers of those programs directly.
