The only difference is that with the snapshot, after the
to pick the install directory screen,the next screen shows progress on 
the progress bar sayng it is parsing setup.ini and then checking 
for various files, then it goes to the package picker.With the setup.
exe 
from cygwin.com/ main page at that screen it doesn't show any progress 
or indicate it is doing anything, it just stays there for a few 
seconds while the computer works and then moves on to the package 
picker screen. The error is the same.
