Yeah, so? What's the problem? Emacs is the end-all of software, right? It's
supposed to do everything except make your coffee in the morning, no? So
*why* would you *ever* want to quit from it? ;-) ;-) ;-)
No flames or editor-wars, please! :-)

You're best off re-posting this after reading www.cygwin.com/bugs.html. The
obvious question that comes to mind for me is - are you running the Cygwin
or Win32 version of Emacs? I can't tell (and neither can anyone else) from
the information you've sent so far. That's why we have a recommended
procedure for posting problem reports. Take a look at 'em.
