| | IE7 crashes when memory protection turned on Vista Ultimate: When I set "Enable memory protection to mitigate online attacks" to ON in advanced IE settings, the IE7 won't start. It crashes instead, with a message that DEP has shut it down because of improper use of memory. Anyone knows why is this? |

| | Re: IE7 crashes when memory protection turned on It is probably a toolbar or addin that is causing the crash. There should be an error in the event logs.

| | Re: IE7 crashes when memory protection turned on It's the Google toolbar. However, the problem only exists if I enable the toolbar AND select "Enable memory protection to mitigate online attacks". If I run the toolbar without the memory protection, IE works fine. What exactly is the conflict? What is really the memory protection? Am I safe without it?

| | Re: IE7 crashes when memory protection turned on You are safer with it on than off. It does cause problems with many toolbars and addins. It's off by default. Some software developers are fixing their plugins so that they work with DEP enabled. Adobe is one. I guess Google is not. -- Kerry Brown Microsoft MVP - Shell/User http://www.vistahelp.ca "Jerry" <undisclosed> wrote in message news  369A92D-376B-4BCE-858D-74D04B020DCB@microsoft.com...> It's the Google toolbar.

| | Re: IE7 crashes when memory protection turned on I have experienced "Error" generated and W IE was "closing down program". After reading this threat I disabled the Ask Tool Bar leaving Google in tact. And it helped so far.
