ping "Operation not permitted" on Windows 7

[David Arnstein <arnstein at pobox dot com>]

Using Windows 7 Professional, cygwin, mintty,and bash. All are up to date.
I am getting this:
    $ type ping
    ping is hashed (/usr/bin/ping)
    $ ping www.microsoft.com
    ping: socket: Operation not permitted

If I launch mintty "Run as administrator" from Windows, then no such
problem occurs.

I have tried re-installing the "ping" package via cygwin setup.exe. No
improvement.

Output from "cygcheck -s -v -r" attached. Any suggestions?
