I also experienced this problem using setup 2.194.2.24.  setup.ini downloads
to 98% (96k/98k), the CPU spikes for several seconds (450MHz), and then focus
shifts to an invisible "Parse Error" error dialog, as indicated by the
Taskbar.  Hitting Enter dismisses the dialog and brings the user back to the
"select a download site" setup screen.  There's nothing interesting in the
setup.log file.

The problem goes away if you download setup 2.194.2.26 from
http://www.cygwin.com/setup.exe.
