DATA execution prevention

J

Joe

I'm running windows xp home edition. IE 8 when I try to access some web pages
which I had been able to access a month ago. I get the erro about the DADTA
execution prevention stopped the page from opening. I've done a search of
the microsoft site but the only refrence I come up with is for windows vista
which I'm not useing. Can the DEP program settings be changed in XP Home
Edition? This problem started also when I updated Adobe flash player to the
newest verision. I did check that to make sure it's installed by the link to
adobe which checks to make sure it's there. Any help will be appreciated.Joe

Hello,

** Solution 1 **
Try running IE8 with add-ons disabled. First ensure that all instances of
IEXPLORE.EXE are ended in Task Manager (press Ctrl+Shift+Esc on your
keyboard, processes tab, end process all IEXPLORE.EXE).

Go to Start > Programs > Accessories > System Tools > Internet Explorer (No
Add-ons) to start IE8 without any add-ons. Try using the browser and see if
it works now.

If it is works now, start IE8 normally, go to Tools (if the menu bar
does not appear, hit the Alt key on the keyboard) > Manage Add-ons. Here,
disable all the add-ons you don't need under 'Currently Loaded'. Enable each
add-on one at each time, restart and see if the problem occurs again. Once
it occurs again after enabling an add-on, you have nailed the culprit.

** Solution 2 **
In addition to the above, you can try disabling IE8's memory protection and
see if it helps. Start > Control Panel > Internet Options > Advanced > under
'Security', uncheck 'Enable memory protection to help mitigate online
attacks' > OK

** Otherwise **
Otherwise you can use the free Microsoft Phone Support for IE8 (see under
'for consumers')
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/internet-explorer/support/call-us.aspx

quote:
Free phone support for Internet Explorer 8 is limited to installation,
set-up and usage only. Advanced issues are not supported. Advanced issues
include problems that are associated with software and hardware development,
network connectivity, server-based technologies, and business-critical
systems.
