I downloaded the Cygwin setup.exe and attempted to run it. 
I first received an "Open File - Security Warning" dialog
box with the message "The publisher could not be verified. 
Are you sure you want to run this software.  ... ".  I then
clicked on the "Run" button and received the message
"C:\Documents and Settings\David\Application
Data\Cygwin\setup.exe is not a valid Win32 application." in
a dialog box with an "OK" button only.
 
I would appreciate any suggestions you can provide.  Thank
you for your help.
 
David Kimery
