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.
