Well, your mirrors are on the mirror list (cygwin.com/mirrors.lst) so it appears you are picking current mirrors. Do you require a proxy or other settings to access the Internet with your browser from this machine? If so, you want to choose the "Use Internet Explorer Proxy Settings" or "Use HTTP/FTP Proxy:" in setup. -- Larry _____________________________________________________________________ A: Yes. > Q: Are you sure? >> A: Because it reverses the logical flow of conversation. >>> Q: Why is top posting annoying in email? -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
