Unfortunately you only sent your 'cygcheck -c' output, not the
'cygcheck -svr' output, so I don't know anything about your settings.
I can't reproduce what you describe on my Win 98 box using the latest
Cygwin (1.5.19-4) and lynx (2.8.5-4), so I assume your environment
variable $TERM isn't set correctly.  It should be set to "cygwin"
when running in a command.com window, to "rxvt" or "xterm" when running
in a rxvt window.
