In IE, www.microsoft.com trips the DEP. This happens everytime I try to access the site. This does not happen in FireFox. Edit - Only happens if it opens in the active tab.

Can you clearify your request, please? What's DEP trip? Good luck

DEP = Data Execution Prevention.

what build are you using ? did you do upgrade or did you do a clean refesh. I have seen upgrades that had addon toIE create this problem

RC2. Upgraded from RC1, which didn't have the problem. Also installed RC2 on another conputer and it didnt have the problem, so i think its partly my laptop being dumb. Didn't use addons for IE.

sound like either bad hardware or bad load on you computer - try fdisk and reinstall
