packages

["Scott Bullock" <skottieb at hotmail dot com>]

Hello,
    Below is a email i sent earlier, I was told to download the appropiate 
packages from the cygwin website, but when I attempted to I only got 
directorly listings of how they would look once installes, i.e. I clicked on 
package "BASH" then on one of the package links and all I got was a 
directory list eg. /bin/bash.exe, the same happened for package "cygwin", 
how do I download these packages?
