The second problem may be related to the first, given the flashing 
continuously.  It seems like the application you are using remotely tries to 
capture the x primary selection as well.  This release of xwinclip claims 
the x selection as soon as a selection has been made.  The other application 
may be doing the same, hence the continuous flashing.

You can try using the version I uploaded to the list.  It needs to be 
compiled though, and if you have the latest version of cygwin it probably 
won't work.  I should be able to release a new version of the xwinclip to 
the mailing list tonight which should work with the latest version, I hope.

Regards,

Chris
