I've written a very simple shell script to perform system backups, this 
works just fine from a full cygwin command line and if I drop it onto a 
windows shortcut to "E:\cygwin\bin\bash.exe --login", but if I associate 
shell scripts (.sh) with this shortcut windows gives the error 
"backup.sh is not a valid Win32 application."

so, any ideas?
