In Cygwin 1.5, you can see the processes of other users only when
running as administrator, too.  That's caused by a restriction in
Windows introduced with Windows 2003.  Cygwin 1.7 will solve this
problem.

When running the application, it needs to have the CYGWIN environment
variable set to "server".

See http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/using-cygwinenv.html and the file
/usr/share/doc/Cygwin/cygserver.README, chapter "How to use the
Cygserver services".
