I'll do my best, but my order of operations when I got the failure was:

1) Spin up a brand new EC2 Windows 2008 64-bit instance
2) Log in
3) Install Cygwin

I literally did nothing else. So, if there is some dodgy software causing an
issue, I may not have the luxury of uninstalling it.

I haven't tried it myself, but I am told the same does NOT happen on a 32-bit
W2K8 instance.

Thanks,
Bryan
