I am on windows XP. I am trying to install cygwin on my machine. But the setup doesn't load any mirror list. Does anybody know a specific URL to install it?

Install it by running setup.exe. Also if you have any problems in installing Cygwin let me know.

Hope it helps.

List of mirrors.

I tried that only, but I am unable to get the list of mirrors. I guess it can be a firewall issue – Varun Mahajan – 2012-07-02T06:17:31.290

I have updated with list of mirrors available at Cygwin. – Ahmed Bilfaqih – 2012-07-02T07:27:44.987
