Yes, it probably is a Zone Alarm problem. Anything that effects the IP
stack on Windows can potentially cause problems and/or slow downs in the
performance of Cygwin/X. Have you tried disabling Zone Alarm?
It is interesting that Zone Alarm is having trouble distinquishing
between connections to the local machine (127.0.0.1) vs. the actual
internet (!127.0.0.1).

Sorry, about the message below - seems to be the Zone Alarm problem
Why does it run sooooo slow. It appears to be accessing the internet at
all times. When I shutdown the internet connection Xwin won't work. I
lauched from the DOS bat file. Help
