I too thought it unlikely that it could affect it but I was unsure as to 
whether cygwin ever ever puts anything into \windows although I felt sure it 
did not.  I was just asking on the possibility someone might recognize 
SYMEvent.

I am running Win95 - but we may have found it. We are testing the theory now 
and as we all suspected if it is what we think it is *not* Cygwin related and 
my apologies for cluttering the newsgroup.  I mentioned it to someone else 
here and they say - "gee sounds like SYMantec" and then I remembered I also 
installed latest patch to Norton Antivirus (because of Anna Kournikova virus) 
Monday - about the same time this started.  I have currently disabled Norton 
and I have booted several times to see what affect and so far have not seen.

You are correct - it would have been and I thought about but failed to follow 
through on my thought. My apologies.
