Usually this is either a corrupted EXE or an EXE that is partially blocked by a virus scanner. A common issue with virus scanner is that the exclusion list only has the mapped drive path, but the EXE is launched from an UNC path (or vice versa). Mixing mapped drives and UNC paths can also lead to different App_Compat flags in the registry that cause different behavior. -- Christof --- StripMime Report -- processed MIME parts --- multipart/alternative text/plain (text body -- kept) text/html --- _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/cal4qjhife2xwqdlcx7s1aktci6m6uqgbogiq667yorpg5oe...@mail.gmail.com ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
