Data Execution Prevention

Hi,

Installed SP2 and found that DEP is blocked bsxpp.exe
which is found in system32. I presume this is required
by Windows XP Pro due to it being in this folder. I
configured DEP to except this file but it still continues
to block it. Why when it has been told to accept it,
does it still block it?

Best regards,
Luke.

"bsxpp.exe" is a "malware" file....delete it.

Download Ad-Aware 6.0 and scan your PC for the presence of spyware:
