Notable Changes in Windows Vista Service Pack 1:
http://technet2.microsoft.com/Window...0a03e1033.mspx
Data Execution Protection (DEP) is a memory-protection feature available
beginning with Windows XP and Server 2003. SP1 improves security with a new
set of Win32 APIs to allow programmatic control over a process's DEP policy.
This will provide application developers with finer control on a process's
DEP settings for security, testability, compatibility, and reliability.
