I keep getting and error message that says:

Datat Execution Prevention, to help protect your computer, Windows has
closed this program. name: Generic host process for win32 services.
Publisher: microsoft
Then send or don't send error report.
OVER AND OVER AND OVER - CAN'T GET RID OF IT.

Then, also get message:
Svchost.exe-Application error

The instruction at “0x009996bc†referenced memory at “0x00000000â€. The
memory could not be “writtenâ€.

Can anyone help me with this?

Also
 
Data execution prevention is very buggy and usually false. Unfortunately i
don't know of a way to turn it off. So what you should do is add svchost.exe
to it's excluded list, there for it will no longer monitor it.

You can do this by right clicking my coputer, selecting properties, going to
system, pressing performance, clicking the DEP tag, selecting to use DEP on
all programs except the ones you enter, and entering svchost.exe to the
excluded list.
 
DEP itself is not buggy. It is doing what it supposed to, catching buggy
programs. There is something running that is writing to a memeory location
it doesn't own. It could be malware or a buggy program or driver. Given the
symptoms i would suspect malware.
 
I downloaded and ran MS Defender and it said my computer was running normally.
No adware, malware or any other kind of ware was detected.
The error message comes up every time the computer starts up and at random
times during the day. Not every day but enough. The computer also shuts down
and this message window appears each time I restart the system.
Thoughts?
 
What is in Event Viewer for this error?

The event viewer shows all errors reported by Windows.

Are you logged in as an admin type account?

1. Open Control Panel | Administrative Tools | Event Viewer
2. Peruse the sections looking for errors related to your error.
 
even type BEX P1 svchost.exe P2 5.1.2600.2180 P3 41107ed6 P4 unknown P5
0.0.0.o P6 00000000 P7 009996bc P8 c0000005 P9 00000008
 
Not that part (Data), but the information on the top and the Message in the
middle box.
There should be an Event-ID and other info?
 
more accurate:
faulting application svchost.exe, version 5.1.2600.2180, faulting module
unknown, version 0.0.0.0 fault address 0x009996bc.
 
did you give up on me Larry?

No ... was checking information. You have the same Version as I do on
svchost.exe

This means that something that is started in Services, that uses svchost, is
not right. You will have to check what is being started in services using
svchost, that is wrong.

Have you installed anything new/updated recently?
 
Installed Norton Security about a month ago. It was happening before that as
well but computer came with Norton on it.
Nothing else I can think of.
