One more question: I notice that each time I update Cygwin, I get
another "ftp...mirror.. " folder.

I know this is not your question but I figured it was a point that was worth documenting for the archives if nothing else (though it has been made before so this would just be a "recent" version). You only get another folder if the mirror you selected for this update was different than the one(s) you selected the last time you ran 'setup.exe'. 'setup.exe' will use (and remember) up to 4 simultaneously selected mirrors. So you only need to select a (set of) mirror(s) once unless you prefer to do otherwise.
