Alright i recently bought Norton 360 5.0 and i right when it was installing it said it stoped working and there was an error. The D.e.p Error came up and i had to close. I turned the Dep off via the system , advance, and dep tab, and rebooted. Still nothing -__- I tried this method already and nothing .. Btw im running Windows vista Its an Hp Pavallion pc

[xXArronaXx]

I am trying to turn off DEP for a program called "Sculptris" for Windows Vista. When I go to turn it off for that program it says that DEP must be enabled for this program and cannot be removed or terminated? Is this suggesting a warning to me, it is a .exe but I trust the file/program 100% What should I do? Please, help me out here.

[dybas28]

hey man, i tried the steps on vista, but it keeps telling me that the maximum number of secrets has been exceeded,

[Britec09]

Hi dybas28

possibly some Virus/Trojan/SpyWare causing the Warning Notification? have you scanned with malwarebytes?
