The machine is at home, so I can't tell for sure, but I turned off file 
sharing on the windows side so the ports shouldn't have been in use. Also, 
you'd think ssh on cygwin would have complained if the ports were in use, but 
you never know. I'll check with "netstat -na" just to make sure, though.
