The BASH shell, indeed the whole bloody computer locks up if you try to run some DOS commands or programs. The Cygwin FAQ talks about lock-ups with Ctrl-C and downloading a USB patch from OSR2, but I don't thinks it applies. Don't be so sure. I had consistent, repeatable lockups under 95 until I applied the USB patch. Thankfully, I no longer use that godforsaken OS with Cygwin. Now I only use Cygwin on NT (which is slightly less godforsaken). -- John A.
