Hi,

If I activate DEP for all programs, will that cause a performance
penalty? The CPU support the NX bit natively (Core 2 Duo).

Nope, makes no difference. There were compatibility issues a while back for
things like Java, but since that has been corrected (way back in Windows XP
SP2 days), its a none issue.

I'm running a Core 2 Duo - makes no difference.
