For some reason my Cygwin bash is very sluggish.  Whenever I type it
takes awhile for it to respond.  There is no load on the system and
when I type in Word or another program it seems fine.

I reinstalled Cygwin but this didn't seem to fix the problem.

I then noticed that the DOS cmd window is also very sluggish.

Any ideas why this is happening?  My only clue is that this seemed to
start happening after I switched the drive letters of my external hard
drive from G:, H:, I: to E:, F:, G: respectively.

I am running on a ThinkPad T60p w/ Symantec Anti-Virus, Sonic DLA,
Google Desktop, etc.

Any help would be appreciated,
Frank
