Can't agree. \windows\system32 should be for OS programs. Have you ever tried to un-install an app that copies its files into \windows\system32? I understand that with Win98 and NT5, M$ is trying to promote the idea of keeping programs and their dll's together.

Hi All! I have Source Navigator lite and gnuwin32 b18 installed on my computer. So cygwin.dll is placed in 3 points. I think that to place cygwin.dll in somewhere like c:\windows\system32 would be quite good idea. At first, it would result the reduction of disk space. At second, it would result the reduction of length PATH variable . And at last, it is general(common) practice to place shared resources in c:\windows\system32 .
