OK, that means that environment settings (the way it's done in the
installer) apparently have no effect on Vista.
You could teoretically try to set
    set CYGWIN=nontsec
somewhere globally, then it would work at the beginning at least, but
it probably wouldn't set the global variables properly anyway.

What I usually did was creating a file pragmatex.bat like
    C:\Programs\context\usr\local\context\tex\setuptex.bat
C:\Programs\context\usr\local\context\tex
and then called "pragmatex" to initialize the environment every time I
wanted to use it.

Any bug reports welcome - but only Vyatcheslav knows how to solve the
ones with installer.
