I first encountered this problem months ago while trying to add the xwindows
packages to my cygwin isntall - the installer would hang in the middle. I
deleted all the cygwin files a few days ago and tried again, with the same
problem. It doesn't matter which host I pick to download from, the result is the
same. So I tried again - deleted the cygwin directory and this time I just
installed the basic package. At the end, it hangs up, never creates any icons or
batch file from which to launch cygwin. I'm using the latest setup.exe from
cygwin.com
