I have installed it with the current default instructions and was able to logon as a regular domain user and cd to c: and delete or add files. That is a major issue. Let me know if there is something I missed. Thats the Microsoft default install that grants those permissions. Cygwin doesn't affect permissions outside of the cygwin directory tree.
