    My computer keeps freezing and shutting down. PLEASE HELP!!
    « on: August 10, 2011, 07:51:33 PM »
    My computer keeps freezing again. It was doing ok but now it keeps freezing and says one of two things. "Internet Explorer has stopped working and it also says "A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available". Thats one thing that it says. The other thing it says is that "Internet Explorer has stopped because DEP thought the program was harmful" or something like that involving DEP. These two problems are happeing quite often now and its very annoying.

    DEP is meant to protect you from threats, which involves halting IE when an attempt to execute code is found in a webpage you have been browsing. What webpage did you browse to when these error messages popped up?

          I will disregard the above. The thing is, Ive tried everything thats been posted above. I did this before when I had problems with my computer a few weeks ago. I have tried everything and I still dont know what wrong. This DEP gets on my nerves. Is there anyway I can omit this or hide it or something because it constantly shows DEP has detected something.

          And you have yet to post your logs...so advising at this point would be guesswork at best...
