My home PC if Cygwin is installed on C:\ then it creates a home folder 
"C:\cygwin\home" and stores my personal profile/settings there.

On my work PC Cygwin is installed in E:\. Cygwin uses "C:\Documents and 
Settings\Owner" as the personal profile/settings folder.

Problem is, some scripts like Perl's CPAN doesn't work 100% because it 
doesn't like the spaces in "C:\Documents and Settings\" path. For example: 
sh: /cygdrive/c/Documents: No such file or directory

HELP!
