Ok, that's probably different then.  If you've made any changes recently 
that affect your firewall, that's something to check though.

No, you're not.  I brought up Cygwin/X to explain the source of the 
information and issues surrounding ZoneAlarm.  X has nothing to do 
with your problem.  But there's a (remote) chance that your 'setup.exe'
problem is firewall related.  That's all I was suggesting.
