No.  sshd is started as SYSTEM, sshd forks a child under sshd account.

Things to check:

- /usr/sbin/sshd.exe, /bin/cygwin1.dll, /bin/cygcrypto.dll, /bin/cygz.dll 
  executable for everyone?

- /etc readable for everyone but only writable by the owner?

- /etc/passwd, /etc/group readable for everyone?

- /etc/passwd and /etc/group contain uid/gid 18 entry for SYSTEM, both
  with SID in either pw_gecos or gr_passwd field?

- /etc/passwd contains sshd entry?

- /etc/ssh* owned by SYSTEM?

- /etc/ssh*key files only writable by owner SYSTEM?

- /var/empty owned by SYSTEM?

- /var/empty permissions only writable by owner SYSTEM?
