I haven't noticed any of that.

I am not sure what all I need. My professor just said go to the site and download Cygwin and use the default settings and that is what I did. I will do some research and find out how to install the current versions of the suggested compilers. One final question should I now be using the Cygwin Terminal instead of Cygwin.bat shortcut? Thanks again for your help and advice. I really appreciate it.
