Freeze on startup

[Andy Schmidgall]

I thought reinstalling the latest version of cygwin/X might help with my 
remote login issues, but now I can't even get X started. It just freezes 
up. I'm not running ZoneAlarm (I used to, but it is long since 
uninstalled) and I tried remounting the /tmp directory in binary mode. 
If I go into the task manager and kill a shell process, then everything 
frees up and X starts running. Are there other programs that might be 
interfering?

I tried removing the -multiwindow and -clipboard parameters from the 
command, but all that happened was that then I could see the 
unresponsive window.

Here's my output:
