Yeah, so?  What's the problem?  Emacs is the end-all of software, right?  It's
supposed to do everything except make your coffee in the morning, no?  So
*why* would you *ever* want to quit from it? ;-) ;-) ;-)

No flames or editor-wars, please! :-)

You're best off re-posting this after reading www.cygwin.com/bugs.html.  The
obvious question that comes to mind for me is - are you running the Cygwin
or Win32 version of Emacs?  I can't tell (and neither can anyone else) from
the information you've sent so far.  That's why we have a recommended 
procedure for posting problem reports.  Take a look at 'em.
