Subject: Corrupt characters in cygwin console (:310)

I have recently installed cygwin on a Windows98 machine.
In the cygwin console (and also the bash.exe console), I
get corrupt characters after I type every 5 or so letters.
Usually something like \:310, or \316\310.

These seem to occur at a random frequency, independent of the
actual letters typed, and can be removed by backspacing a few
times.  Needless to say this makes it tiresome to type in 
commands!!

Any help much appreciated,

Thanks,
