Harry, I think Toshiba has less to do with the issue than the OS. DEP depends on both hardware and software flags. Both are supplied by parties outside Toshiba. I have no doubt a buffer overflow is being detected. And, as I recall, this, many yarns ago, was the very first attack on an OS: The password buffer was 256 bytes long. After that, bogus passwords overwrote critical code space.
But, why now? Looking at the history file, there have been unexplained closures of more than hugin or GIMP; Windows Explorer also was in the list. Presumably, closed by the hardware flag because I don't recall seeing a message from DEP. Perhaps the latest Windows OS update improved the software DEP with the notification message from the system tray. Just conjecture... We shall persist until a solution is identified. Thanks to you all for your participation. On Jul 2, 3:36 pm, Harry van der Wolf <hvdw...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi all, > > I googled on "Toshiba Vista DEP" and found more hits on similar issues.
