  Looking at the cygcheck output Young posted, I would have thought that *this*
bit:

-------------------<snip!>-------------------
Path:	C:\Program Files\ESTsoft\ALZip\
	C:\Program Files\ESTsoft\ALZip\
-------------------<snip!>-------------------

can't be helping any, either......  Young, if that's really your PATH setting, I
don't understand how your computer could be working at all.  Try resetting your
path to 

C:\Windows\System32;C:\Windows;C:\Windows\System32\Wbem 

and re-running setup to reinstall cygwin.

    cheers, 
      DaveK
