SPEWS blocked me

Is SPEWS necessary? I see that the whole DSL IP range of our company's ISP is blocked. Terrible that each user needs to beg the mercy of SPEWS or individually send request to register their e-mail addresses safely to use in Cygwin. No intention to insult. Just feel there may be alternate ways

Thanks for the info. I've read the FAQ and it mentioned something about the // notation on the PATH environment variable. I checked my PATH variable and there was no presence of the // notation. I then set the PATH to include only the usual bin directories but ls -l is still considerably slow.

I've made a new version of binutils available for download. This is just a refresh from sources.redhat.com. A notable change is the addition of Egor Duda's --enable-runtime-pseudo-reloc option which allows almost transparent linking of dll's without the need of a def file. However, this option
