PuTTYcyg is non-responsive when running it.

I am running cygwin 1.5.25-7 and 1.5.25-11 and have no problems with puttycyg. 
I am
running the latest version of puttycyg too.

works for me on 1.5.25-11...  fixed it by removing the old version of 
cygwin1.dll 
that was in the same directory as putty.exe (don't know how it got there in the 
first place!)

I'm using 1.5.25-11 and it's not responsive. However, after running the cygwin
session, if I manually launch cthelper.exe from the commandline (without 
killing the
running copy) then I see output of the newly launched cthelper session in the 
putty
terminal. I suspect there is a race condition.

It is NOT working under VISTA. 
I tried to launch cthelper by myself.. but it still keep doing... nothing.
I can attach a Screencap for you to believe me

Just to confirm, when I replace the 1.5.25-11 version of cygwin1.dll with 
1.5.24-2
without making any other changes then puttycyg does run successfully.

I tested this on Vista Ultimate x86 version.

I confirm I can't get puttycyg to run with latest cygwin 1.5.25 installed today 
under
Vista SP1.

Same situation as Comment 5 by gastonm

If it helps anyone, I had the same problem.
This was my fix:

rename c:\cygwin\bin\cygwin1.dll to cygwin1.dll.off (you have to have all 
cygwin apps
closed)

Download this:
http://sourceware.mirrors.tds.net/pub/sourceware.org/cygwin/release/cygwin/cygwi
n-1.5.25-7.tar.bz2

Extract cygwin1.dll 

place in C:\cygwin\bin

I can now puttycyg again!
I cannot tell you how much ptutycyg makes windows commandline usable.. Thanks 
Mark
and Putty!!

It seems the problem occurs on systems which have multiple conflicting versions 
of
cygwin1.dll installed.

http://cygwin.com/faq/faq-nochunks.html#faq.using.multiple-copies

All Cygwin programs, including cthelper, suffer from this problem.  I don't 
believe
there is an easy way to detect this condition in code.

I had this problem even on my Vista machines even though they had only one 
cygwin1.dll on them.  It went away with an upgrade to some version of 1.5.25-x 
and 
I've not seen the issue again since July.
