What do you mean by Cygwin? A bash prompt?
I used the shortcut, c:/cygwin/cygwin.bat to run bash.
As soon as I do this, Kaspersky Internet Security 2009, which can track
applications as well as network activity, informs me that the following
unix bin commands are run:
bash, id, chmod, tr, hostname, find, sort, echo, grep, uname, and regtool.
When it happened the first time I could have sworn it was regedit
instead of regtool. I am assuming that what I am seeing is OK, but I
think I will dig down and see what the bash related scripts are
doing....its starting to come back to me now....its been several years
since I used UNIX...
(I've got an OLD IBM manual on my shelf that instructs me on how to
install my 8K board in my PC; and other DOS PC users used to drive me
crazy because nobody understood that there were things called file
directories that one could use instead of putting all of your files and
applications in the main directory.)
Process explorer[1] can tell you what application accessed the registry,
Thanks, I've been wanting programs like the process explorer and the
process monitor.
