However for it to run I need to also package the cygwin.dll file. Am I allowed to do this? I hope to hear from you soon so I can post the program to other users across the Internet. Thank you.

However in order for it to work, I must use the cygwin.dll file. This is fine. However since we'd like to enable other people to use this free product, I'd like to ask permission to re-distribute ONLY your cygwin.dll file along with the chat softwares pre-compiled binaries and source of the FreeChat software. Thanks for such a great product, and hope to hear from you soon.
