Someone has even put the blame on Cygwin on their forum: http://forum.kaspersky.com/lofiversion/index.php/t48713.html I do not agree with his assessment because: 1- I have tried the proposed fix and it didn't change anything 2- I am having the same instability problem with their AVS when I compile big projects (ie: ACE Framework) with Visual Studio.NET 2003. 3- Cygwin is running very smoothly with previously used AVS such as McAfee and Trend Micro OfficeScan. Before doing my AVS switch, I just wanted to ask cygwin users and/or maintainers which AVS they are recommending and that is known to have no compatibility problems with Cygwin.
