    Data Execution Prevention

    My internet keeps crashing with the explaination of 'Data Execution
    Prevention'. Mostly happens with MySpace and when bringing up sites with
    many pictures. I tried following the instructions for turning it off for
    some programs but when I try to turn it off for IE, or Firefox or Avant I
    get a message that tells me it can't be turned off for these programs. The
    options also don't let me turn it off completely. What a pain this is. Is
    there any way to turn it off totally??? I have AV, firewall and spyware
    programs running so I don't see that I need this too. Help!!!! TIA.

    Hi,

    It's a security feature - have a look at this tutorial

    DEP - Enable or Disable

    Hope this helps
