X-IsSubscribed: yes

I've tried what you said, cleaned my PATH var (using control panel,  ...)
but it doesn't work. 
still the same problem

I ran a new IExporer window, to make sure it takes the new path values.

I could do a full uninstall of cygwin, and install  a clean one, but
that looks so terrible;-(
