Actually I did read the FAQ and was not concerned about the norton complaint about wget. However, the rsync complaint occurred when I was syncing 2 local machines. I will try the same rsync with a crossover cable (no internet) and see what norton sez this weekend.

You probably should read the FAQ entry referenced below: Is Cygwin Setup, or one of the packages, infected with a virus? <http://cygwin.com/faq/faq_toc.html#TOC11> What it says applies equally as well to anything you might download via wget and rsync. -- Larry Hall http://www.rfk.com RFK Partners, Inc.
