thanks,
from this list I had Sophos Anti-Virus installed in the system. It is version 
9.5 fully updated and not 7.

Anyway I tried to disable its 6 windows services, check the 8 tasks it 
generate was closed,
but same results with Cygwin.

As I cannot admin this Sophos installation I cannot disable the scannig of 
Cygwin root installation.
I will try to ask to the admin to add this excetion (low possibility I think).
BTW seems strange Sophos interfere only with Cygwin.

Valerio
