Well, after I installed it, I got lots of errors after my next reboot 
which were caused by the copy of cygwin1.dll in the System32 folder...

Ans perhaps even more telling, in the support forum 
<http://tinyurl.com/r2dda>, someone who is apparently one of the authors 
states that it's perfectly fine to install cygwin1.dll and cygz.dll in 
the System32 folder, 'cause everyone does it, and it you don't like it, 
tough, just uninstall it...
