After following the directions step-by-step, during
download I get a "Download Incomplete" message from
cygwin's installer. This error occurs no matter what
base install mirror I select.

In my opinion, this is a HIGH PRIORITY bug. People
cannot even install this software.

    I solved this by completely deleting my cygwin directory and
    reinstalling. Use the following sites:

    ftp://mirrors.kernel.org

    http://prc-tools.sourceforge.net/install

    Completely deleting my cygwin installation and cygwin cached
    files did not resolve this for me.
