cron version? What "Win32 process"? OS version?

> Looks like it is occupying 100% of the CPU time.

Is it "occupying 100% of the CPU time" or not? What does the "Task 
Manager" say ([Ctrl]+[Shift]+[Esc])?

> I installed the cron using 'cygrunsrv -I cron -a -D -e CYGWIN="ntsec

Why? "/usr/doc/Cygwin/cron.README" says: "cygrunsrv -I cron -p /usr/sbin/cron -a -D".

> Is there some environment setting I am missing that is causing this problem.

So what is your "environment setting"? echo $CYGWIN
