I'd been skimming these topics, which was why I posted the glut program cygcheck as
it, and probably many programs, show msvcrt in cygcheck. I did just run the packet
capture program and hit refresh on my browser and got a bunch of nicely formated
hex data- I can't verify the data is right but any malfunction isn't due to stack corruption
or a gross build problem. It did even ctrl-C ok.

I downloaded whatever they had and followed the instructions but that didn't work
right away. I've never used mingw and don't really see the point as I understand it is
limited and I've gotten used to cygwin. So, it seemed the easier thing to do was make everything
cygwin ( if it can be made to work). This was only supposed to be an example program as I wanted
to lift their ICMP code and write some LAN exploration utilities, their pre-built
binaries are fine for packet scans right now but it may be nice to modifiy a few things soon.
Thanks.
