Running Vista Home Premium, with the built in Movie Maker ver. 6.

After dragging an AVI clip to the storyboard, in timeline mode, the
moviemaker crashes if I try to do anythingwith it. The message is: "Data
Extraction Prevention stopped the program..." When I tried to change the DEP
settings to allow running the program, I was not permitted.

On some other occasions there is another message: "Another user is running
Movie Maker...." There was only one window open at the time.

The computer is new, Vista is updated automatically.

I also tried to shut down some of the filters in Movie Maker; no use.



Any suggestions?

What's the fault information for that DEP crash:

This indicates that your AVI codec is bogus.
